Tinder. Woman looking for a man, man looking for a woman. It could have been so simple if she wasn't Israeli and the "man nearby" wasn't behind the wall, in the East Bank of the Jordan River. Israeli filmmaker Ines Moldavski meets Palestinian men she met on the Internet to get them to talk about their need for love and desire to possess.

A chronicle which provides a rare window into the international perception of the Iraq War, courtesy of Al Jazeera, the Arab world's most popular news outlet. Roundly criticized by Cabinet members and Pentagon officials for reporting with a pro-Iraqi bias, and strongly condemned for frequently airing civilian causalities as well as footage of American POWs, the station has revealed (and continues to show the world) everything about the Iraq War that the Bush administration did not want it to see.
