109 Minutes Drama
A turbulent story of Anda, a beautiful Viennese doctor, and her lover Marcus, who came to Israel with other young Jews to build a society offering equality - and peace. Instead, they find themselves fighting for survival. Unsettled Land tells the story of young Jewish idealists. Fed up with western civilization after the tragedies of World War I, they come to a commune in the Galilee to build a new society based on absolute equality. They find love, compromise, and disillusionment - and face Palestinians who have lived on the land for generations. Unsettled Land, Barbash's first feature since the critically acclaimed Beyond the walls, is part of an important trend in Israeli culture to reexamine the myths of the past so as to understand the troubles of today. With Kelly McGillis and John Shea.
