Episode synopsis
"Point of No Return" has had exclusive access to the militants most wanted by the security forces of Israel: the Al Quds brigades of the Islamic Jihad from the refugee camp of Jenin. A new generation of Palestinians, very young and inexperienced, confront the relentless security forces of Israel. What is the reality of these young people, and why have they decided to take up arms in such an uneven fight against an army that is looking for them, capturing them, and, in most cases, eliminating them? But among Palestinians and Israelis, there are still people who also seek an alternative to weapons, despite the new spiral of violence and the most far-right government in the history of Israel.
