Review

An average Palestinian began documenting the Israeli settlement/land-grab that took place in his village, the nonviolent Palestinian resistance to it, and the brutal Israeli response to that. (The title refers to the five cameras he went through in the process.) The results are occasionally manipulative but ultimately devastating. An interesting take on a well-worn subject.
