Very inspiring film. Three years ago I visited Ramallah with no idea what the conditions of the city were or the political atmosphere. Just by chance, I stumbled upon this film on the sundance channel and quickly noticed where it was set. Ford Transit does justice on showing the audience the hardships and inconveinences that Palestinians face on a day to day basis just getting around. I recall from my trip hearing the stories of going through checkpoints and then finally going through several myself. Its interesting to watch this film then watch Paradise Now or Rana's Wedding to draw the parallels from creation to actual. Also, a savvy viewer will notice that many of the passengers in the Ford vans are famous Palestinian and Israeli celebrities and politicians.
