In a world that is kept largely ignorant about the reality of Palestinian oppression and suffering, the dedicated work of small grass roots volunteers plays a crucial role in developing community level awareness.

The Antonine Wall is a ruined monument to Roman occupation that runs east to west near the central Scotland town of Falkirk and is the adopted motif for a twinning initiative by local activists. It is the juxtaposition of past local history and an all too immediate modern equivalent a few thousand miles east in the West Bank community of Jayyous that the Antonine Friendship Link seeks to highlight.

This short video begins amid the green and pleasant remains of the Roman Wall straddling Central Scotland and ends in the village whose very lifeblood ebbs away in the shadow of a separation barrier that locks it's people out from their own land.
