The Law in These Parts

Winner of the Documentary Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival, and executive produced by investigative filmmaker and journalist Laura Poitras, “The Law In These Parts” is a gripping and revelatory investigation into the military legal system put in place by Israel over four decades ago to govern the occupied Palestinian territories – the repercussions of which are felt to this day by both sides. In his rave review for the LA Times, Kenneth Turan called it "Fascinating. A Brilliantly complex film. The second superb Israeli documentary (after 'The Gatekeepers') to deal fearlessly with an aspect of that country's legal and political system."
