Promises 2001 123movies

Watch: Promises 2001 123movies, Full Movie Online – Several Jewish and Palestinian children are followed for three years and put in touch with each other, in this alternative look at the Jewish-Palestinian conflict. The three filmmakers followed a group of seven local children between 1995 and 1998. They all have a totally different background. These seven children tell their own story about growing up in Jerusalem. Through this portrait of their generation, we see how deep rooted and almost insoluble the problems of the Middle East have become. When the protagonists speak out in an epilogue a couple of years later, it becomes apparent that all have lost their childlike innocence..
Plot: Documentarians Justine Shapiro and B.Z. Goldberg traveled to Israel to interview Palestinian and Israeli kids ages 11 to 13, assembling their views on living in a society afflicted with violence, separatism and religious and political extremism. This 2002 Oscar nominee for Best Feature Documentary culminates in an astonishing day in which two Israeli children meet Palestinian youngsters at a refugee camp.

Incredible
It was so poignant to see this film now, with all the strife that is taking place in Israel. To say that this film is a must see is an understatement; it should be mandatory for all Palestinians and Jews to see it together. We can only hope that its projects like this that will open the rest of the world’s eyes and let them understand what life is like there. People who only watch CNN in the states will never understand what it means to be apart of this world. It’s just too bad that so many millions will be in line to see “Star Wars” next week, and maybe less than 1% of those people will see this film. In a perfect world, it would be the other way around. But until the generations to come find a way to stop harboring hatred and to stop continuing a way of repression and violence, this is the world we will be in. It will take a long time, but I hope some day we will all be able to put our religious differences aside, and realize that we are ALL right.

What an inspiring and terrifying film. It was so well documented, almost every scene and every word is important. A brave project with a wonderful message; I can’t say anything bad about it.

a little slow, but a very important message
I think the saddest thing in the movie is when kids are sitting around discussing politics and talking about people dying around them as if it is a normal part of their day. The saddest thing is that the killing is around them all day long, but most children or even adults are given the opportunity to communicate with those they think they hate. In the end I think the best thing about the movie is that no matter how old we get or mature we get or how much information we get about the situation the problems are rooted in something much deeper in a way that confuses kids. The kids know the solution, but somehow no one can seem to implement it. I really think the documentary did some very important things and I am glad it was made. I honestly felt it was not paced very well and started out kind of slow and not all of the characters seemed necessary. I really recommend people seeing this movie and its message should not be lost. I guess what makes it hard to rate these documentaries is that I always feel so crappy at the end of them. I hate to see kids living like this with ideas already forced into their heads. None of those children talked like they were children. The best scene in the movie is when the traditional Jewish boy interacted with the Muslim kids and just laughed, but to find out later that we did not want to participate in the follow up interviews saddened me. Since this is such an important project I feel as if it is very important to see what those adults grew up to become.
