To accompany the No Man’s Land? exhibition, Gate48 (www.gate48.org) now presents a film cycle entitled Living with Walls. The main focus of this sequence of films by Israeli directors, each followed by a discussion with an expert, is on the physical and mental barriers within Israel itself and between Israelis and Palestinians. The cycle sketches a portrait of a nation which prefers to take cover behind internal and external walls rather than engage in dialogue with the other side.
