The movie skillfully captures the mounting tension during a critical five-day period marked by a stand-off between Israeli soldiers and hardline settlers.
The political backdrop of the withdrawal involved the contentious decision to evacuate all Israeli civilians and military presence from the Gaza Strip, marking a significant shift in the region's geopolitical landscape.
During the making of the film, the production team joined Israeli forces and settlers documenting various facets of the withdrawal.
Hard-liners may feel the settlers come off slightly worse here than the Israeli military, who acted the heavies more in Checkpoint.
... Use of overlapping sound to bridge scenes and a glowering, ominous soundtrack build up tension adroitly in last 45 minutes, as the clash between settlers and soldiers grows more combustible.
