The Knife

Synopsis
During a shoot on a film set, a film director argues with his main actor over the course of action of a film about a young Palestinian fugitive. The film centers on a moment of hesitation between dying a martyr and surrendering to the Israeli army. While the director wants the knife to be left aside, his actor claims the action is insulting and undervalues the case of martyrdom. When, in reality, the army attacks the film set, both director and actor align in their reaction.
