    Accurate portrayal of the story

    This is a delightful and heartwarming and sometimes heartbreaking story that properly represents how the Palestinians struggle for basic rights in the face of oppression.

    Great insights into the women's leadership.

    The animation is captivating.

    This film shows how the PLO worked with the Israeli leadership and the Clinton administration to highjack the process and deprive the intifada of its full force and effect.

    Pro-terrorist movie

    A morally repugnant film that glorifies a convicted terrorist Naila Ayesh, who took part in the incitement to violence in the "First Intifada" wave of terrorism. 100 Israeli civilians and 60 IDF personnel were murdered and more than 1,400 Israeli civilians and 1,700 soldiers were injured in the violence incited by Ms. Ayesh.

    Human Story of Resistance

    This is a beautifully done film showing the human side of resistance to oppression and and the difficult choices that people need to make. I was particularly impressed that most of the political events are shown through actual US newscast, and the human story is told through a family who lived the experience. As someone who has been to Palestine and seen the occupation first-hand, I can affirm that it is a story that needs to be told.

    Excellent story of women standing for freedom

    Very powerful and impactful film following the story of women leadership and resistance of the occupation. Includes the strife and disagreement within the Palestinian struggle.

    Great narrative on women's movement

    The narratives of the women on their role in Palestinian movements during the Intifada were very informative. The documentary definitely underlies the deep significance of women as positive change-makers on past, present, and future human trajectories.
