a5c7b9f00b Follows a Palestinian leader who unites Fatah, Hamas and Israelis in an unarmed movement to save his village from destruction. Success eludes them until his 15-year-old daughter jumps into the fray. Budrus is so awesome! I really liked how the women became a part of the nonviolent protests in the little village of Budrus. I found Budrus so interesting and cool, seeing Jewish women protesting right along side the Palestinian women. The soldiers seem less threatened and less likely to shoot an unarmed woman. This documentary will inspire and empower women of all races, creed, belief, nationality, etc.<br/><br/>It had me gripping on the edge of my seat and really hoping good will prevail in the face of uncertainty. It showed me a whole new light on what's happening in the Occupied Palestine Territories that I had never seen before. The struggles, the trials, the triumphs, the tears, the power of nonviolence and seeing the good side of humanity prevail. <br/><br/>This movie gets a 10 from me. Now at the top of my list of favorite documentaries. You should check it out. Budrus is exceptional! I liked how it shows both sides, the Israeli soldiers and the Palestinians. This film stands above other films I have seen on this subject. It seems to shed light by calling on humanity's consciousness to do what is right in the world. I found Budrus to be an accurate portrayal of a nonviolent resistance movement. <br/><br/>I was really impressed how the different factions had to come together to really make a statement. It was inspiring to see Fatah, Hamas, Israeli and international activists, and especially to see the women protesting for humanity and human rights right along side the men. I like how they use public relations and nonviolent protest to protect their livelihood (Their Olive Groves).<br/><br/>Budrus is in my mind is a must see documentary. I recommend this doc to anyone who wants a "how to" guide for making peace and solidarity between different peoples of the world.
