Inspiration: Synopsis: In a refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, two boys decide to send a message to the American president Barak Obama through his Facebook page. They ask him, as the president of the United States, to intervene and end the siege on the Gaza Strip and they invite him and his wife to visit the Strip and witness people’s hardships there. But they never receive a response. They decide to use a small video camera to record a very angry video message addressed to Barak Obama from the people of the camp.

artfully done because this type of docu style can easily be melodramatic and off putting but here not at all. Incredibly non-chalante and elegant while truly documenting in style and substance the devastating daily life & death of the inhabitants of this refugee camp. {Jury Member}
