Film summary
This gripping documentary chronicles the lives of Palestinians in Masafer Yatta (West Bank) resisting mass displacement and land appropriation by the Israeli military. Over four tumultuous years (2019 to 2023), the film weaves together handheld footage from Palestinian activist Basel and reporting by Israeli journalist Yuval, forging a powerful, collaborative narrative of resistance, friendship, and unequal power under occupation. By pairing raw visual testimony with cross- cultural collaboration, No Other Land not only informs but also challenges audiences—making it a potent catalyst for conversation on film, humanity, and political resistance.

What the critics said
“No Other Land, for its many images of despair, still offers a stirring vision for what could be – Israelis and Palestinians working together in the name of justice, collaborating toward a world where both are free.”
Adrian Horton, The Guardian
“An urgent work of cinematic activism.”
Rosalind Galt, King’s College London
