Gaza: This Bleeding Land

It's July 2014. In the hours leading up to Israel's ground invasion of Gaza as part of its Operation Protective Edgel, two young men, rival combatants, contemplate life and fate.

Omar is a member of the Palestinian resistance, a proud product of Jabiliya refugee camp in Gaza, who has only ever known occupation, death and oppression. Gabriel is a soldier with the IDF's elite Golani Brigade, a passionate and unwavering Zionist for whom Israel represents Jewish liberation and pride.

As the clock ticks down they each go back through their respective lives and reflect on the experiences and seminal moments that brought them to this point, here, prepared to fight and to die for a cause greater than self.
