Review of 200 Meters

200 Meters (2020)
9/10
A powerful film and a leap for Palestinian cinema and film industry.
15 November 2020
I am rating this at 9, although very rarely I have given such a high rating, and the reasons why I believe this film deserves a solid 9 is the fact that palestinian cinema and film industry has improved so much in the last few years, and Palestinian film makers have worked so hard for years to get some screen time, and now they're portraying the reality so vividly and using the real Palestinian narrative that's widely censored and silenced. The production is amazing, the actors are very talented and genuine, the music is so fitting and expressive of the scenes.

The fact that this is a reality in Palestine today is appalling, we are living in a world that still tolerates this in 2020.

I think such productions and stories are the ambassadors of this cause, and they are doing a good and talented job at it, they are telling a narrative that's parallel to the stereotype, and more powerful sometimes.

Well done the talented Ameen Nayfeh, and to Ms Odeh.
