SUMMARY

Donor Opium takes a critical look at the impact of the last 20 years of international aid to Palestinian communities in the occupied territories. The film explores whether the declared goals of all the support—peace and the establishment of a democratic Palestinian state—have in fact been its actual result, or the exact opposite.
