Following the 1967 occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, more than 200 Israeli settlements and outposts have been built in Palestinian territories. The Iron Wall explores these settlements as a cornerstone of Israeli policy and what this means for the future of a Palestinian state. Featuring interviews with prominent Israeli and Palestinian peace activists and political analysts, including Jeff Halper, Akiva Eldar and Hind Khoury.

“The best description of the barrier, its routing and impact is shown in the film The Iron Wall.” — President Jimmy Carter

“The Iron Wall is a highly recommended film for anyone concerned with the quest for a just and peaceful resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict - a film that takes a clear stand while showing genuine empathy for both sides.” — Hillel Schenker, Co-Editor for Palestine-Israel Journal.

“This is a powerful film exposing one of the most pressing issues of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. It is imperative that it gets a wide audience, and that efforts are mobilized to subvert a catastrophic outcome.” — Jean-Jacques Joris, Head of the Swiss Representative Office to the Palestinian Authority

Screened in the Palestine Films and Forum session featuring special guest speakers.
