"Gaza" is an interesting fly-on-the-wall documentary. Most of the subjects are decent people wanting an ordinary and peaceful life. There are only a few offhand comments reflecting on the sad situation: "It's Hamas's fault", "I used to dream of growing up and killing Israeli soldiers". A Gazan physician - who struggles to help the wounded - simmers, "I hate every non-Palestinian who's breathing". But it's not a documentary showing deep reflections by Gazans on the causes of their predicament, and maybe that's the point. To the majority of Gazans and Israelis, they're not interested in the complexities of why the radicalism of the few on each side impact so many.
