GET THE LAND BACK
הדונם של סבתא
About the film
When soon-to-be-dad comedian Irmy learns his sole inheritance is a tiny parcel of land in the occupied Palestinian territories, he also discovers it’s been seized by extreme-right settlers who turned it into a winery. Joined by his father, he challenges the settlers, the army, and the Israeli government to reclaim the land. What begins as a personal mission becomes a provocative, funny, and activist journey that reveals the mechanisms of occupation, confronting ideological taboos and exposing the complex realities of land, power, and resistance in the West Bank.
