Movie Haiku:Sanfur (Mar'i) is a Palestinian teen on the West Bank who has become the informant of an Israeli officer (Halevi). At its best, gives insight into complex inter-Palestinian rivalries (Palestinian Authority vs Hamas vs Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade). Rich says: "Good police procedural." Jan says: "Interested in the Palestinian side but woefully thin on the Israeli side."
