Letter to a Refusing Pilot
In the summer of 1982, a rumour made the rounds about an Israeli fighter pilot who had been ordered to bomb a target in Lebanon. Knowing the building was a school, he veered off course and dropped his bombs into the sea. Letter to a Refusing Pilot is a study of this act of defiance which marked Zataari’s childhood memories. Oscillating between documentary, essay and coming-of-age-drama, this film analyses a personal gesture in the face of a greater conflict.
