The Law in These Parts

The Law in These Parts


Watertown Citizens concludes its "Current Events Film Series" with the showing of "The Law in These Parts".  

This documentary explores the legal framework for the Israeli occupation through testimonies of the military legal professionals who created the system. It asks crucial questions that are often avoided: Can such an occupation be achieved within a legal framework that includes genuine adherence to the principles of rule-of-law? Should it? What are the costs that a society engaged in such a long-term exercise must bear? And what are the implications of the very effort to make a documentary film about such a system?
