Winner of the Grand Jury Prize for Best Documentary at the 2007 Slamdance Film Festival, Unsettled presents the historic 2005 withdrawal from the Gaza Strip through the eyes of six young people. Three are settlers determined to stay. Two are soldiers with different feelings about the order to evict Jews from their homes. One is an activist whose sister was killed by a terrorist bombing and sees the withdrawal as the first step towards peace. These twenty-something surfers, soldiers and settlers are barely out of their adolescence, and yet they occupy center stage in a national drama as both the vanguard resisting the eviction, and the soldiers executing it. Director Adam Hootnick worked for MTV News prior to shooting Unsettled on his own. The driving narrative style and songs by Matisyahu propel this dramatic story forward, as a generation in its twenties faces a defining moment.
