Columnist and author Natascha van Weezel and programme maker Sinan Can have been engaging in dialogue with people on both sides of the conflict since the start of the war in Gaza. Despite hatred, name-calling, and even threats on social media, they continue to seek dialogue. Last year, they did so in the Netherlands. Now, in the conflict zone itself. In Bridge over the Fault Line II, Natascha and Sinan travel to Israel, where war rhetoric usually drowns out reason.

Leila Khaled was the first woman to hijack a plane. In 1969, she showed her grenades to the terrified passengers by order of the Che Guevara commando unit of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. Through the ensuing media bombardment, she put the Palestinian nation on the global map. The pretty 24-year-old Leila became a hero to many Palestinians, including the Swedish/Palestinian teenager Lina Makboul, who is now a filmmaker. At least Leila dared to do something, Lina thought at the time. She visits Leila 35 years later with a camera, and finds a woman who does not regret anything.
