Synopsis
When peace proves impossible, all means are good to defend one's homeland. This is how the idea of suicide commandos was born, on the border between the Palestinian territories and what they refuse to recognize as Israel. Jocelyne Saab films these fighters, who train relentlessly in a secret underground base to become Fedayeen.
