Soldiers On Patrol

joppenheimer
We gain unprecedented access to an IDF combat unit as they go about a routine patrol in the Palestinian town of Tulkarm. Capturing in crisp high definition the reality of the life of an Israeli soldier, with no heroes or villains - this film is about humans, who's national service has placed them in a town full of tension.

    • Israel understands the meaning of turning "swords into plowshares".If radical and extreme elements on both "sides" can one day wake-up to the fact that violence and killings only brings on revenge that will continue the "cycle" and provide no improvement to the quality of life and prosperity to the region that all can live and enjoy with an "enduring peace".

    • the one isreali soldier here looks like a guy i knew when i was in the army. It makes me sad to think how much alike us other people are and how young people there fight in war the same as us but worse.

    • This is a great change of perspective! I find the piece to be unique in the sense that it's a view point taken from a certain angle that might go unrecognized in mainstream media.
