Mayor

"The best new film about Israeli-Palestinian conflict (...) [It] blends black comedy and unnerving suspense for a fascinating look at life under occupation." 

"Osit’s on-the-ground diary of a series of events that transpired mostly in December 2017 elucidates the geopolitics of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict with humanistic immediacy. (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)" 

"It’s possible that Osit’s portrait of Hadid, who is only ever shown in a favorable light, is a bit one-sided (...) But as its title declares, 'Mayor' is less a portrait of the man than of the position — specifically, what that position entails in a city under siege." 

"Osit’s witty, sharply attentive portrait of Ramallah’s magnetic mayor offers up a new perspective on the region's political conflicts."
