Gaza Strip |
| James Longley |
| Typecast Releasing, 2001, 74 min. with special features, DVD. |
| Longley took his camera to the Gaza Strip in early 2001 to record a side of the Israeli/Palestinian struggle he felt was not being represented in the U.S. media. "Gaza Strip" follows a range of people and events in the aftermath of the election of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, including the first major armed incursion into "Area A" by IDF forces during this Intifada. "Gaza Strip" is filmed almost entirely in a verite style, presented without narration and with little explanation, focusing on ordinary Palestinians rather than politicians and pundits. More observation than political argument, "Gaza Strip" offers a rare look inside the stark realities of Palestinian life and death under Israeli military occupation. |
