List of films

International Section: DOCUMENTARIES

1) Ameer Got His Gun
Dir: Naomi Levari; Israel; 58 min; 2011; Hebrew & Arabic

Ameer Abu Ria is about to go into the army. As opposed to the
majority of 18 year old boys in Israel, for whom army service is
Mandatory, Ameer is exempt from military service under the assumption
that his enlistment might endanger Israel’s security. That
is because Ameer, an Israeli citizen,is a Moslem Arab. And yet,
Ameer decides to volunteer. He believes that his induction is the
way to equality, he believes this is the way to belong to the state he
lives in, the state he wants to love. He is considered an enemy, a
fi fth columnist in the eyes of Israeli Jews, and a traitor of the worst
kind in the eyes of Arab citizens; the kind who turns against his
brothers. Ameer, an eternal optimist, wishes to be both a proud
Arab and an enthusiastic Israeli while his only enemy is reality.
