Overview

The Crossing is a Palestinian drama that follows three siblings on what should be a simple family visit to their bedridden grandfather — a man who lives on the other side of the separation wall. The film strips away political rhetoric to reveal the intimate human cost of enforced division, tracing the obstacles, checkpoints, and emotional weight that transform a routine family errand into an arduous and uncertain journey. Understated yet powerful, it stands as a quiet testament to the daily realities of life shaped by barriers both physical and political.
