- The documentary focuses on the issues facing a hospital which operates in a region which is full of political tension. The St John of Jerusalem Eye Hospital has been operating for over 130 years. The West Bank is subject to a system of movement restrictions, including the Separation Wall, permit system, settler-only roads, and the many checkpoints. Those living in the area are often facing extreme poverty. The hospital and satellite clinics and mobile outreach teams in the West Bank provides sight-saving treatments such as cataract and laser eye surgery to treat diabetic retinopathy. Their Gaza Hospital was established in 1992 to meet the growing need for eye care in a population that has been facing increasing difficulties in accessing the main hospital in Jerusalem. Over 1.8 million Palestinians live in isolation in Gaza, one of the most heavily populated areas in the world, of which 1.3 million are refugees. The St John School of Nursing is the only provider of specialist ophthalmic nursing training in the oPt. Upon completion, graduates are awarded a Postgraduate Diploma in Ophthalmic Nursing, accredited by the University of West London. Many nurses who undertake the course are given future employment with St John. Their 4-year Medical Residency Programme at the Jerusalem Hospital trains local doctors. Once qualified, the doctors can specialise in a particular area of ophthalmology under our Fellowship Programme. The Joint Teaching Programme in partnership with the Israeli Hadassah Medical Center, is where many of our doctors undertake their training. This partnership allows our doctors to access training that is not available to them in the oPt; as well as encouraging constructive relationships between Israelis and Palestinians.
- "Zugaim Dama" ["Queens Up"] is a story about an unequal match in a tough male environment. Somewhere around the northern boundaries of Israel, in an adjutancy office of a quite sleepy military base, on an especially wintry Saturday night - three "desk-jockeys" who remain on weekend duty - are playing Poker. In the course of the poker game it turns out who is weak, who's even weaker and who's the weakest among three: Green, the NCO (non-commissioned officer) who is only three months before his release from the army, has a weakness for money, and poker is the best way he knows to earn it. Dudu, the cook, is about to sign standing army just like his father; He has a weakness for paternal figures, that's why he hangs after Green. And the weakest soldier of the base, Mano, the gate-keeper, has an artificial eye, and he's just came out of basic training, so he's an easy prey for everyone. After a few rounds of poker, Mano confesses that he can't pay the money he owes, so Green makes him a twisted offer: if Mano can't bet on money, why couldn't he bet on his glass-eye. From now on the card game becomes nerve-racking, until the one-eyed rifle-armed Mano turns from a prey into a predator. This movie is about a little nightmarish army.

- "If I saw someone else screaming like my mother, I would be sure that person was mentally disturbed, if it wasn't 100% authentic..." This is what Israel Meir says about his mother, Rabbanit Lea Kook, whose discourse, according to him, stems from absolutely authentic belief. The ultra orthodox community in general & its women in particular are extremely wary of media exposure. The film therefore provides a rare look into the lives of ultra orthodox women, their activities & their grasp of their identities. Tikkun portrays the phenomenon of the Rabbanit (the wife of a Rabbi) of Tiberius, Leah Kook, an orthodox leader followed by many Israeli women. This film is a vivid picture of the routines and customs of life in an ultra-orthodox household and introduces a very charismatic,yet highly controversial main character. Rabbanit Kook, a staunch believer in a prophecy the world refuses to hear, such an extrovert enthusiast that the filmmaker documented her intensively for two entire years. As the maker of the film disguised herself and became one of the members of the house she could explore the backyard of the scene. The surprising cooperation demonstrated by the rabbanit in making this film, and her agreement to such intimate exposure of her physical & spiritual world for two years were a form of "Tikkun" for her. By watching the Rabanit from almost no distance at all, one could reach a conclusion to the controversial attitude of the Israeli society towards Lea Kook: is she genuine or a fraud?
