The Law in These Parts
HOT DOCS 2012 WINNER - SPECIAL JURY PRIZE, INTERNATIONAL FEATURE
Winner of the World Cinema Documentary Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, The Law in These Parts is an opportunity to hear from the legal minds who worked in the Occupied Territories in the Gaza Strip creating a framework that has had a profound impact around the world. Since 1967 the Israeli military has devised numerous laws, established courts, sentenced hundreds of thousands of Palestinians and enabled half a million Israeli settlers to move to the Occupied Territories. In constructed testimonial interviews, the men who architected the system that defined the boundaries and laws reveal their feelings about their decisions. An important insight into just how much of a political and social impact a legal system can have. Charlotte Cook
