              The documentary follows the taxi-van driver Rajai who tries to live and survive in Jerusalem and Ramallah. We see the problems in the region through his eyes. Rajai is the guide in the labyrinth of war, occupation and resistance in a chaotic area. He leads us over detours and mountain dusty roads passed the roadblocks and bit by bit we get to know more about him and his thoughts. The passengers in the van, the places he gets to and the activities he explores besides driving a taxi conjure up a divers image of the situation in Palestine and of Rajai himself.

              At the height of the Vietnam war, with the media drumming up the war and patriotism, Cassius Clay took the name Mohammed Ali and refused to go to war or to participate in propaganda activities. He paid the price of being stripped of his world heavyweight title and faced a prison sentence. “No, I am not going 10,000 miles to help murder, kill and burn other people to simply help continue the domination of white slavemasters over dark people the world over."

              Dolores Tjeada Saavedra, the Councillor for Work at Marinaleda Town Council, gives a simple and detailed account of how a grassroots social movement has managed to socialize the means of production, housing, health, education and leisure in this small town in Southern Spain. Dolores explains the many benefits of having an active trade union, with the political power of the town counciland the productive force of cooperatives in the hands of the people. Marinaleda has a population of 3000, and an unemployment rate of 0%. Anybody who wants to self-build in the town is only charged 15 euros per month, and working families only pay 12 euros a month for childcare including meals, to name just two of a long list of social benefits. A true oasis in a country dominated byunbridled capitalism and the shabbiest and most retrograde government in Spain’s short history of democracy, which has left the country with an unemployment rate of 27% – 50% in the case of youth unemployment – and three million people living in poverty.

              When night falls, the Colombian countryside undergoes a transformation. Danger lurks in the dark. Carmen, a peasant woman in her fifties, knows it well. This film finds the right distance to absorb her tale of a tormented life, while drawing the audience into the harsh world of the Colombian peasant through one of its most fascinating aspects: the oral tradition.

              Between 2000 and 2003, PROCIVESA, the property development company that is restructuring various areas in the old part of the city, expropriated various housing blocks in Barcelona?s La Ribera neighbourhood at a low price. And then demolished them. Local residents named the new empty space that remained where their houses used to be the "Forat de la Vergonya" (the Hole of Shame), as a way of denouncing a situation that they considered degrading for a number of reasons: the public authorities? abandonment of an area that was already problematic, the interminable construction work, the loss of rights of people relocated to new apartments, etc.

This segment describes the sit-in on a night in June 2004 as experienced inside the Iglesia del Pí, documenting the assemblies held by the migrants under pressure of the government, major trade unions and the police, followed by the declarations made through the press.

              Moving from one hotel in Bethlehem to another in East Jerusalem, the filmmaker encounters a series of problems involving a ceiling, a video camera and the Israeli occupation of Palestine. Made over six years in the hotels of six different countries, Hotel Diaries is a series of video recordings which relate personal experiences to the current conflicts in the Middle East. In these works, which play upon chance and co-incidence, the hotel room is employed as a 'found' film set, where the architecture, furnishing and decoration become the means by which the filmmaker's small adventures are linked to major world events. Works in the series include Frozen War (Ireland, 2001), Museum Piece (Germany, 2004), Throwing Stones (Switzerland, 2004), B & B (England, 2005), Pyramids/Skunk (The Netherlands 2006/7), Dirty Pictures (Palestine 2007) and Six Years Later (Ireland 2007).

              The 'Cartoneros', an army of the shadows - more than 100,000 strong -who assemble each night to scavenge the city's street and rubbish dumps for cardboard to sell for a pittance. These people commute to their place of work like foraging animals, herding themselves onto the 'White Train' which rattles through the suburbs of Buenos Aires in the battered shells of carriages devoid of doors, windows, seating or lights.
