Directed by Amer Shomali and Paul Cowan, The Wanted 18 tells the story of a Palestinian town whose residents purchase 18 cows and start producing their own milk, locally, during the First Intifada. The collective endeavor enables the town's residents to enjoy "Intifada milk" and assert their self-autonomy. Soon afterwards, the Israeli military declares the cows a "threat to the security of Israel" and embarks on an elaborate hunt for the "wanted 18." Employing a mix of cinematic technique including animation, interviews, and real footage, the film presents and innovative approach to articulating non-violent resistance.
