12/12/2012 As an Israeli, who got the talk to the movie maker after watching it, I relate to it (Or disagree) on so many levels. Great film. See more 07/04/2011 Cuts right to the cute little cuticles of the debate: the humans on either side of the wall. See more 03/14/2011 A beautiful movie, outstanding. See more 02/06/2011 This is a fascinating documentary on how medicine and a child's health can transcend politics and war. I found it fascinating how the filmmaker (an Israeli journalist) gradually changed through the course of the movie. He started by telling the story fairly objectively, then clearly became more and more involved emotionally in the lives of this child and family. I strongly recommend watching this film! See more 01/07/2011 Beautiful film that provides the strange complications of the Arab Israeli conflict. Israeli doctors fight to raise money for treatment for a young Palestinian boy with an auto immune deficiency. The funding is provided by a person whose son has been killed by a suicide bomber. The mother holds open the possibility that the boy himself may end up as a suicide bomber. Complicated and not easy to comprehend. See more 12/28/2010 Fascinating and moving documentary about a Palestinian baby in need of a life-saving operation, whose only hope lies in an expensive treatment in an Israeli hospital. Starts as a heartwarming tale of enemies setting aside their differences to save a life, and becomes something infinitely more complex, as the Jewish filmmaker realizes the mother's desire for her son to become a martyr - to die for the Muslim cause to retake Jerusalem. A powerful and insightful real life drama. See more Read all reviews
