Our Forbidden Places (original French title:Nos lieux interdits) is a 2008 documentary film.

Synopsis

In 2004, the King of Morocco launched an Equity and Reconciliation Commission to investigate state violence during the Years of Lead. For three years, the film follows four families in their search for the truth: Activist, young rebel soldier or simple citizen, either they or their relations were imprisoned in different parts of Morocco. Each person tries to "find out", discover a "reason", to be able to mourn. But forty years later, the state secret finally unveils the existence of another, more intimate secret, the family secret. They all feel the need to reconstruct history and recover their parents, taken from them twice over, once by their disappearance and another by the secret. Choosing between deeply set silences, lies and taboos within and outside the families, over forty years.

Checkpoint is shot in cinéma vérité style with no narration and very little context. Shamir himself is absent from the film except for one scene in which a border guard asks him to try to make him "look good," and Shamir asks how he should do that.

Le documentaire raconte l’histoire de quelques jeunes combattants palestiniens de Jénine, dont certains ont été tués par les forces israéliennes. Enfants, ces jeunes faisaient partie d'une troupe théâtrale fondée par Arna Mer-Khamis, la mère du coréalisateur Juliano Mer Khamis.
