'Checkpoint' deals with the daily routine at the militarised border. Palestinians stand waiting - sometimes for hours - to learn whether they can cross. Frustration is heaped onto indignity, and those who can't tell a convincing enough story to the soldiers are refused entry, no matter how innocent their intentions. The Palestinians - almost all of them ordinary and benign - think the checkpoints, the searches, the arguments, the capriciousness, the authoritarianism, are destructive and absurd. "Terrorists don't use checkpoints," one of them shouts while waiting in a long line. "You people caused all this trouble," a soldier snaps back at some of the grumpy Palestinians.
