An intimate look at life inside the Jewish settlements in the West Bank. "The Settlers" is an Israeli documentary filmed in 2016, nearly a decade ago, directed by Shimon Dotan. The film takes a critical look at the Israeli settlements in the West Bank. The stark beauty of this film clearly outlines the deep underlying issues, it is not favorable of the Israeli government, yet tells the story in a manner that shows the religious and political factors at play.

Like many, the events in Israel and the middle east did not seem to concern me. However with the eruption of violence and genocide against the Palestinian people came the realization that this affects all people everywhere. This documentary makes a stellar work in bringing the full scoop of all the issues that were and are at play.

Without knowledge people are ignorant and with their ignorance there is a arrogance—tragically wars will continue.
