The Wanted 18Amer Shomali, Paul Cowan

The first Palestinian Intifada began in 1987, as a civil uprising, without much violence. One of the most striking examples was the purchase of 18 cows, as an attempt of the people living in occupied territory to become independent of the purchase of Israeli milk. But their ‘act of rebellion’ did not go unnoticed and the cows were registered as a ‘threat to the national security of Israel’. Using delightful animations, The Wanted 18 tells this improbable story from the viewpoint of het cows. An unusual and original look at an old conflict.
