A sober, in-depth examination of the complexities of the suicide bombing phenomenon.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.
Christian Science Monitor by David Sterritt
Chilling and instructive.

"There is no antidote for the human bomb," one Sri Lankan official flatly states, but Ziv's film offers a number of important insights into a phenomenon that's only gaining momentum.
The New York Times by Stephen Holden
A gripping and important documentary.
In an attempt to understand this phenomenon, Ziv interviews leaders of terrorist groups like Hamas, failed hit men now in jail and relatives of those who died carrying out these attacks. The effect is frightening.
