Information
Tunnel Vision (Gaza)
by Alexis Monchovet
On air: 12th September 2010

It has to be one of the world’s worst jobs… digging the tunnels under the border between the Gaza
Strip and Egypt to smuggle supplies across the border into the Palestinian enclave.

With the constant threat of bombs and collapse, French filmmaker Alexis Monchovet follows
Palestinian tunnel workers as they work in the dead of night to move bag after bag of goods through
the narrow winding passageways.

The trade continues even though the Israeli blockade has been partially lifted and the crossing from
Egypt into Gaza opened since nine activists were killed on a recent peace flotilla.

Israel often bombs and destroys the tunnels, but the workers somehow manage to smile through as they
build more and keep the goods and their own black market economy moving.
