No Man's Land
by Larry Towell

No Man’s Land is photographer Larry Towell’s hauntingly beautiful documentary account of the Palestinians during a 10-year period. In it, his black-and-white photographs depict the physical and psychological walls that divide Palestinians from Israelis, and a land divided against itself.

If you're too close to events, you lose perspective. It is not easy to be fair with the facts and keep your own convictions out of the picture. It is almost impossible to be both a participant in the events and their observer, witness, interpreter.
