What is legal and what is just? Winner of the Documentary Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, The Law in These Parts is a gripping and revelatory investigation into the military legal system put in place by Israel over four decades ago to govern the occupied Palestinian territories the repercussions of which are felt to this day by both sides.
