Walls of Shame West Bank Separation Wall
We examine the intent of those who built the controversial West Bank Wall, and the effect on those whose lives have been changed by it.
A documentary series about division, and about the barriers that men erect, in calculation or desperation, to separate themselves from others, or others from them. When diplomacy and conciliation fail, this is the alternative, and not since medieval times have walls been so in demand around the world. It matters little what they are called - walls, barriers or fences - the intention is the same: to redefine human relations into "us" and "them".
