Granted rare permission to film
Granted rare permission to film inside the country's highest security facilities, Israeli filmmaker Shimon Dotan shows everyday prison life, including biweekly family visits, internal elections, periodic security searches of cells, and relations between inmates and prison staff.
"Remarkable! A thought-provoking documentary."
- L'Humanite
"Exceptional and premonitory ... this fascinating documentary upsets the conventional wisdom."
-- Le Novel Observateur
"Absorbing ... full of remarkable interviews."
-- New York Times
"An extraordinary, brilliantly shot and edited look at life for some Palestinians
incarcerated in Israeli prisons, men's and women's."
-- Howard Feinstein, indieWIRE
"Chilling ... insightful ... a disquieting portrait of a community that, despite or even
because of its shackles, remains fervently committed to its cause."
-- Variety
"A candid and provocative documentary ... Enlightening but disquieting ... a humanizing, deeply disturbing look... a documentary that leaves one in stunned silence at the end."
-- Al Jadid
"Endlessly fascinating ... A movie that undercuts viewers' preconceptions, invites them to make interpretations and forces them to question their sympathies -- especially regarding the Middle East -- deserves plaudits."
-- Chicago Jewish Star
"A candid and unflinching portrait... an excellent resource for teachers of politics and criminal justice ... Highly recommended for academic and public libraries."
-- Educational Media Reviews Online
"Shimon Dotan's penetrating camera offers no easy answers or single point of view, just a complex state of affairs that'll leave you stunned."
-- Now Magazine
"Remarkable, a coolly detached look at the potential next generation of Palestinian
leaders...The fascination of Hot House derives in no small part from the ways that
Dotan's interview subjects defy our expectations."
-- The Jewish Week
