Ameen Nayfeh’s “200 Meters” is the rare Palestinian-made film that has been widely programmed at Jewish film festivals. The reviews from these screenings show the American Jewish community’s inability to see the Israeli occupation for the brutal human rights travesty it is, and an inability to see Palestinians as equals.
