Hothouse – Home of Security Prisoners
Documenting the Lives of Security Prisoners in an Israeli Jail
Israel detains over 10,000 Palestinian prisoners. They are deemed “security prisoners” by the Israeli government, but, to many in the Palestinian world, they are viewed as leaders and martyrs for the crimes they have committed against innocent people. While some of the prisoners have renounced violence in favor of peace, many others are as dedicated to their causes as the day they were incarcerated and are creating virtual terrorist training camps within the prison’s walls. A film by Shimon Dotan. Watch it now on FLC+
