Behind the lens - Palestine part 4

Ross Domoney Season 2 Episode 4

In this episode, we get caught up in the most destructive Israeli army raid in the West Bank in decades. We discuss the calculated risks filmmakers take in hostile environments, especially during dangerous events like army raids. After a week of unsuccessful attempts to access the Nur Shams refugee camp, we finally gained entry and captured some truly moving documentary material. However, while filming, the camp was abruptly invaded by the army, forever changing the lives of the people we met. This story is part of Shadowgraph’s new podcast series, which explores the complexities of filmmaking interwoven with the politics of working in Palestine.
