As state governments across the country pass legislation to restrict political boycotts of Israel on its human rights record, BOYCOTT profiles individuals and organizations caught in the crosshairs of those new laws. As Alan Leveritt of the Arkansas Times, Bahia Amawi in Texas, and Mik Jordahl in Arizona each challenge local anti-boycott measures in the court system, director Julia Bacha chronicles their actions with surprising revelations and personal insights. This compelling investigation is a timely reminder of the far-reaching personal and professional implications of laws enacted at the local level that seek to limit free speech.
