“Of Land and Bread” offers an unmediated view of life under Israel’s occupation. The film is a series of vignettes from B’Tselem’s Camera Project, which provides video cameras and training to Palestinian volunteers in the West Bank to document their own lives under the Israeli occupation. Edited together by director Ehab Tarabieh, the collection of films provides a raw depiction of Palestinian daily life governed by Israeli state violence - carried out by uniformed soldiers and police, and by Israeli settlers acting under their protection and with the backing of the state. It is a story of a vulnerable life, with no political rights or the right to protest, a life on the receiving end of the project of dispossession of land and resources, which is the Israeli occupation, and where one’s only defense is the camera.


This film is recommended viewing for non-Palestinians to better understand the realities of life under settler-colonialism.
