Leila Khaled: Hijacker2005Lina Makboul58 min. Sweden/Jordan (subtitled) |
In 1969 Palestinian Khaled made history by becoming
the first woman to hijack an airplane. This fascinating documentary
is at once a portrait of Khaled, an exploration by the filmmaker
of her own Palestinian identity, and a complicated examination of
the nebulous dichotomy between "terrorist" and "freedom fighter."
