Behind the wall Photo

Photographer’s Note

My day in Palestine:

I took the bus from Jerusalem to Bethlehem. People were freidnsly there and I had an interesting conversation with the guy shown in the picture. He is making a movie about life "behind and outside the wall". Its part of an uni project. He told me that he was in charge for the "behind" part and a friend of his is making the "outside" part, because he cant leave West Banks - I could, after having the conversation, food and taking pictures.

well choosen POV and framing, well composed.
a "wall... of hate" for sure, as it's written, that reminds other walls on the planet or from other times, but one day this wall will be destroyed, but for what reason, circumstances, who knows ?

What a wall!
Higher than Berlin Wall. Stronger than US-Mexico border fence.
Very interesting photo-document.
