Synopsis
The Process is the human tale of a political story., Three lives, framed by bold cinematic observation and reflective criticism, reveal a new perspective on the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian peace process. Politicians and diplomats around the globe have been trying to solve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict for well over two decades. The Process looks at life inside the deadlock. The film follows a young Israeli girl, raised in a settlement and now living in Tel Aviv as she travels to the Palestinian West Bank for the first time, a precocious teenage boy living in Ramallah with ambitions of becoming a horse breeder, and a Palestinian mother of 4 as she battles with the reality of the sharp end of the conflict. Financed independently and shot entirely by 24 year-old director Joshua Baker, the film is a lyrical examination of life in the conflict. Drawing on archive and interview footage to provide context, The Process focuses on the people on the ground and seeks to show a different side of one of the world’s most famous negotiations.
