Settlements Above the Law

Directed by Matthew Cassel

A chilling exposé of the escalating violence and land grabs perpetrated by extremist Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank. The film highlights the growing trend of these settlers establishing illegal "herding outposts," which serve as a pretext for seizing vast tracts of Palestinian land. The documentary traces the surge in violence that followed the devastating attacks on Israel in October 2023. Amidst the chaos and fear, extremist Jewish settlers have exploited the situation to intensify their land-grabbing activities. Eyewitnesses recount harrowing tales of intimidation, harassment, and physical violence perpetrated by these settlers, often under the watchful eye of Israeli security forces.
