Plot summary
In late 2024 the filmmaker spent three weeks in the occupied West Bank, the region he had visited fourteen years earlier for an earlier documentary. He observes and questions Palestinians who live there and Israelis in the settler movement. Ari Abramowitz, who came from Texas, tells him the word Palestinians makes him uncomfortable; he does not accept that they are a real nation with a genuine claim to the land. Daniella Weiss takes him to gatherings of groups that intend to reoccupy the Gaza Strip; she says 800 Israeli families have agreed to settle there.
