Torn: The Israel-Palestine Poster War on NYC Streets
Torn delves into the controversy ignited by the 'KIDNAPPED' poster campaign, a grassroots initiative spotlighting the 240 hostages taken by Hamas. These posters rapidly became polarizing symbols, fueling heated confrontations between pro-Israel and pro-Palestine activists and transforming New York City’s streets into arenas of ideological and emotional conflict. The film examines the motivations driving activists to put up or tear down these posters, unraveling the complexities of this high-stakes "paper war" waged far from the epicenter of the actual conflict.
