Emad Burnat lives in a Palestinian village which Israeli settlers, protected by their army, are attempting to make their own. Over a five-year period, Burnat records the chaotic scenes taking place outside his house on the family video camera. When his camera is broken, he buys another one.
“Five broken cameras—and each one has a powerful tale to tell.” This stunning, deeply personal film offers an essential view of the 21st century, earning a nomination for the Best Documentary Oscar. Behind a simple device lies a multifaceted and vivid portrait of life and resistance in Palestine.
