The Territory is an unfiltered look into the lives of Israelis from the former Soviet Union who made their new home in the West Bank settlements. While some residents move to the settlements looking for cheaper housing, most are motivated by Zionist ideology; and all are influenced by their past experience of being a minority in the Soviet Union. The film is an exploration of questions of identity, religion and conflict.

Directed and produced by Dmitriy Khavin
