Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film. Article upgrading needed: You can help! WP:IA   Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development. To contribute in upgrading this stub article to Start class, the following requirements must be met: Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.) Film infobox ({{infobox film}}) Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image. Non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.) Plot summary Include cast and crew information. At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.) Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))  Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.

[edit] Higher case letters

Do we really need all the capital letters in this article? It looks a bit of a mess if you don't mind me saying. Lradrama 12:20, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ugh

This is going to take some effort. DasBub 08:14, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

I've cleaned up quite a bit. There are far too many awards and nominations listed, but I think I'll let someone else decide what to keep and what to cut. More beautification to follow. DasBub 08:58, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Is this better?

I've had a go at making the main text more worthy of an encyclopaedia, and less bone-headed. If it looks OK, let's put it out there:

The film explores the relationship between a photographer (Ziv Koren) and his work covering the Israel-Palestine conflict. It depicts his involvement covering various events over a two-year period up to Israel's withdrawal from Gaza. Director Solo Avital seeks to shed light on how and why a man such as Koren would leave his wife and daughter to work as a photographer in a dangerous war zone.

Actually, I've just looked at the original again, and have decided to replace it forthwith before somebody simply deletes this article as advertising. --Gilgongo (talk) 23:18, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
