Gaza in 2011, four years after VICE first tried and failed to get in. Suroosh Alvi and producer Jason Mojica attempted the crossing in 2007 through Israel's Erez checkpoint while Hamas and Fatah were fighting an open war for control of the territory, a conflict Hamas won outright. The film picks up once Egypt's post-Mubarak government starts allowing limited entry through the Rafah crossing, letting the crew finally reach the strip and film daily life under Hamas rule. Alvi walks Gaza's streets and markets, talks to residents about what changed after the takeover, and records the visible effects of years of blockade and factional violence on ordinary neighborhoods. There is no narration standing outside the story here, just a reporter getting into a place that is usually closed to cameras and showing what he finds once he's inside. The 2007 failure and the 2011 entry bookend the piece, framing the whole thing as an access story as much as a portrait of the place itself.
