A Fantastic Film

This film manages to balance a serious political topic with humor and charm. Very entertaining and insightful.

"Ford Transit" shows us how the driver of a makeshift West Bank bus negotiates the treacherous border, and gives an ear to the Palestinian passengers' points of view along the way.

A very enjoyable and entertaining journey. Each rider has a tale to tell, and the driver has many.

I came away from this film feeling that "everybody is wrong, and nobody is right" about the Middle East.

I highly recommend it.
