In Their Own Words
"One of the leading stories is a story [about] a guy in [an army] unit that during a demonstration, he shot a child and [the child] was killed. They were supposed to shoot rubber bullets but he was killed by it and they were supposed to shoot to the leg or whatever. [...] A few months later you saw [that] what totally drives this guy crazy is the fact that he was not punished for it. The fact that [...] he had to accept it [...]. He had questioning after it but nothing ever happened to him. And you saw that this guy's life would be totally fucked just because he wasn't punished." Yael Ronen, Director - Interview
"So [one of the actors] described one time that he went on a bus and [it] was a day after a bombing and everybody was [tense], and someone asked the driver to ask for his ID and he made a big riot out of it. So [in devising] we took it a few steps forward - this situation where he really makes a riot there because he doesn't want to show his ID. And then [the driver] asks him to take off his shirt and he totally gets naked. And so, he's doing like a provocation out of it because it feels like being a suspect all the time. So that was one of the scenes." Yael Ronen, Director - Interview
"There are a few scenes about the wall. Some of them are totally satiric, nothing to do with realism, very exaggerated. Like about a family that is building a separation wall inside their own house between their bedroom and their kitchen [...]. So whenever they have to go to the toilet they have to show permits and whatever. It's a very funny scene. And we have a scene were the actors are playing goats and they're going and suddenly they're seeing the wall and they look at each other and they don't understand why is this thing here and what is this thing here in the middle of the open space and then they just go back the way they came. So like looking at what is wrong with those people?" Yael Ronen, Director - Interview
