Synopsis
 

Home Game the movie focuses on the human aspect of a political event to remind us all that regardless of politics we are all people who are supposed to care about one another. The plight of the families from Gush Katif, Gaza Strip is but one story in the world today that highlights the reality that people allow their differences of opinions to stop them from caring or empathizing with fellow human beings.
"Home Game" documents the story of graduating 12th graders, from the Israeli village of Netzer Hazani, during their last vacation before adulthood.

Their yearly summers of beach, ball and fun usually focused on the annual youth final four basketball competition. Yet their 2005 summer vacation turned into something else entirely because the Israeli government began to implement its plan to remove them from their homes in Gush Katif, Gaza, as part of the Middle East peace process.

Instead of just competing on the basketball court they were also forced to compete on their 'home' court as well.

This is a documentary about the teenage years, growing up and the youth who were forced to deal with a confusing reality that potentially harmed their whole system of beliefs and values.
