The Human Factor

As seemingly improbable that a lasting accord between Israelis and Palestinians may ever be attained, the best window of hope came during the '90s as American mediators labored to help broker a peace. This fascinating chronicle from documentarian Dror Moreh ("The Gatekeepers") looks at that critical period from the perspective of the U.S. players involved, and limns how the process ultimately foundered in the wake of Yitzhak Rabin's 1995 assassination. 108 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
