Overview

25 km is a deeply personal documentary in which the filmmaker takes viewers on a journey across the Occupied Palestinian Territories along a route of just twenty-five kilometres — a stretch of land transformed by checkpoints, roadblocks, and rocky roads into an exhausting daily ordeal. As she travels, she confronts an unsettling realisation: that adapting to the abnormal conditions of occupation is itself a form of surrender, a quiet erosion of the resistance to injustice. Honest and introspective, 25 km blurs the line between political filmmaking and personal confession, asking difficult questions about endurance, complicity, and what it costs to live normally under occupation.
