For young Palestinian lawyer and activist Basel Adra, a West Bank native who grew up watching his activist parents fight to protect their land from Israeli occupiers, there has been no such progress: Time has stood dispiritingly still as he has aged into his elders\u2019 shoes. Adra is a resident of Masafer Yatta, a network of Palestinian villages in the southern Hebron Hills, recently subject to an aggressive campaign of demolition and forced transfer by the Israeli army. As his community is literally bulldozed before his eyes, Adra has little scope to do anything but keep his camera on: \u201cI have nothing else, only my phone,\u201d he despairs. That, thankfully, is not nothing. In the shattering documentary \u201cNo Other Land,\u201d Adra\u2019s witnessing becomes ours.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Premiering at the Berlinale not four months after Hamas\u2019 October 7 operation into Israel was followed by Israel\u2019s large-scale invasion of the Gaza S<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a> \u2014 an assault that has killed over 28,000 Palestinians \u2014 \u201cNo Other Land\u201d might be called timely. But through its years-spanning depiction of both the mortal danger and mental strain of living under occupation, the film underlines that the situation has been at crisis point for a long time, whether or not it\u2019s been grabbing international headlines. The project began in 2019, when Adra met Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, Jerusalem-based journalists reporting on Israeli evictions of local residents, and offered his first-hand perspective on events. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Together with Hamdan Ballal, another Masafer Yatta activist, they formed a filmmaking collective that, despite its Palestinian-Israeli makeup, has little interest in both-sides-ism. The doc benefits from Abraham and Szor\u2019s journalistic nous (with Szor gaining often remarkable access as its chief DP) and freedom of movement, but the Palestinian experience and point of view is centered throughout. The chasm between Adra\u2019s and Abraham\u2019s respective acquaintances with the conflict is pointedly underlined, too. At one point, as Abraham bemoans the lack of online engagement with his latest report, Adra chides him for his self-serving exasperation: \u201cYou want to end the occupation in ten days \u2014 it requires patience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Beginning in the summer of 2019, the film divides itself into season-based chapters that illustrate both the relentlessness of the Israeli army\u2019s offensive on Masafer Yatta \u2014 consistently thwarting villagers\u2019 attempts to build back what has been destroyed \u2014 and its erosive effect on Adra\u2019s spirit, not to mention that of his community as a whole. Looking on as bulldozers pile into homes, livestock pens and even pigeon coops, making way for a proposed Israeli tank training base, the five-years-younger Adra expresses hope that residents\u2019 on-the-ground resistance will capture the attention of major world powers, and pressure Israel into desisting. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    This naive optimism does not hold as we fast-forward to the winter of 2020, and are im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely faced with similar acts of demolition. When one villager, Harun Abu Aran, confronts the soldiers confiscating his generator, they shoot him in the chest, leaving him paralyzed from the shoulders down. \u201cNo Other Land\u201d presents such horrifying footage with candid sangfroid, contributing little commentary where the images speak for themselves. The filmmakers track Abu Aran\u2019s deteriorating condition over the next two years, as he and his stricken mother find makeshift refuge in a cave, while she wearies of the international reporters who visit to document their tragedy, while yielding nothing in the way of change or relief. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    As the film moves through the years toward a late-2023 post<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">script<\/a>, a terrible holding pattern is established, as sudden demolitions \u2014 even, in one dreadful instance, of a schoolhouse in session, cuing a panicked evacuation \u2014 become routine. Community rebuilding efforts ensue, mostly by night, and are met with bulldozers once more. Protests repeatedly run into hostile police opposition, Adra often throwing himself into the thick of conflict and clouds of teargas. Slowly, the people of Masafer Yatta begin to concede defeat, with many packing up their lives and moving to cramped apartments in the city. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    A brief official visit from Tony Blair, in his capacity as a special envoy of the Quartet on the Middle East, ensures a reprieve for one village slated for Israeli demolition, but Adra is unimpressed. \u201cThis is a story about power,\u201d he says \u2014 and the people living permanently with this crisis don\u2019t have any. Relations even fray between the quartet of directors, or so the film\u2019s construction would have us believe: Ballal wonders aloud how he can so much as maintain a friendship with any Israeli under these circumstances. Abraham declares his allyship, insisting he wants the occupation to end. \u201cHow does that help me?\u201d Ballal spits back.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Given the conditions of its production, \u201cNo Other Land\u201d would be vital even in a more ragged form. But the filmmaking here is tight and considered, with nimble editing (by the directors themselves) that captures the sense of time at once passing and looping back on itself. The intense, jolting impact of the film\u2019s intense sequences of Palestinian-Israeli confrontation \u2014 often shot on phone cameras, to the consternation of army officials, and violent enough to shock many complacent fence-sitters on the issue into angry awareness \u2014 is balanced with more composed, observational scenes of Adra, his family and his neighbors trying to live an everyday life on ground that keeps getting pulled out from under them. Hope is fading that the next generation might retain their ancestral land; if they do, they\u2019ll likely inherit Adra\u2019s activism with it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
