2001- 7 children, 7 hates, 7 different lives, 7 possibilities, 1 meeting and 1 million chances to peace. “Promises” is a shiny and wonderful documentary about the conflicts between Israel and Palestine showed by children. It’s extraordinary to see them talking about the conflicts: they repeat their parents’ opinion until the director B.Z. suggests a meeting. Some agree; others no. And the great moment of “Promises” is their meeting, when they’re just kids: playing, eating, laughing, talking, crying… That meeting waves to peace. It seems to be the solution adults don’t want to see. “Promises” is great, one of the best movies I’ve ever seen in my whole life. 10/10.
