Tantura

Powerful account of atrocities that should never have happened, it's hard to watch but explains a lot. And the cover up at the highest levels makes it even worst and it's hard not to draw similitude to what the nazis did, it's the same thing

To imagine that just 3 years after being hunted by the nazis, the same people decided, you know what is a good idea, lets do the same to someone else.

And to top it all of they were rounding up, chasing and judging the nazis while at the same time doing the exact same thing. Insanity

And it's really hard to see people telling about this crimes and laughing, these aren't people, these are animals.

Of course this film's topic is absolutely essential and I am so glad this story is being told. As for the way the film portrays details (the eerie points where people smile, the reaction of the dog and other animals, the inflections of the people being interviewed) is what made this film so terrifying and so strong. It's also why I recommend watching it multiple times-you'll notice more detail each time. I've watched it twice, a year apart, and found myself catching so many more small details. This film is essential if you want to educate yourself about Palestine and its history, and about the way people lie to themselves to keep their "morality" intact. Ultimately, what I found myself feeling again after watching is this: being afraid to learn, to adapt and to admit when you were wrong is essential to liberation. Every time someone in this film says "I don't think about that anymore," it's so clear that they think about it every day.

I cannot fathom how much courage the director had to gather to make an honest film about our history.

For anyone who grew up on myths promoted by state propaganda, this film is bound to be hard to watch but ever more so, very much necessary.

Masterfully made. The director deserve all the praise he can get and I wish him the best of luck fending against the immense backlash it created.

The movie serves the honorable purpose of speaking truth to power, with no restraints or filters and for that it is a must watch for anyone who thinking they have an idea about the history of Israel and Palestine.

This is a very revealing film which documents the horrendous massacres committed against the indigenous people of Palestine. The interviewer skillfully exposes the repetitive lies and excuses concocted by certain members of the zionist militias as they ransacked village after village with the peaceful seaside hamlet of Tantura being the focal point of this documentary. It was refreshing to hear the truth being told from time to time. Interviewing Ilan Pappe for this film was excellent as he is the foremost Israeli scholar on the events that transpired during The Nakba. Very educational and well worthy of a watch.

This movie should be seen from an educational perspective. When they say that history repeats itself it is important to understand why. If one wants a reminder as to why, they should consider watching this. It leaves you with many mixed emotions. You feel like you are watching an episode of Law and Order with no legal trial. You feel you are watching CSI with no evidence presented. You feel you are watching a legal drama where there is truth being hidden like in the movie primal fear. It leaves you with a feeling of what people are capable of out of fear and trauma where there is no impunity. Its a must see for a open mind.
