Widow and empty nester Salma Zidane lives on the Palestinian West Bank, in a little house flanked by lemon trees planted by her great grand parents. Unfortunately, when the Israeli minister of defense builds a house adjacent to her own, her lemon trees are deemed a security risk. Salma hires a lawyer to prevent the powerful man from having her ancestral trees removed, but the odds are stacked against her, and to make matters worse, she begins to fall in love with her lawyer. Things seem bleak, but it looks like hope could shine in from an unexpected source, when the minister's neglected wife develops sympathy for Salma's plight. ~ Cammila Albertson, Rovi

Some New Trailer For Etz Limon (Lemon Tree)
New Review For Movie Etz Limon (Lemon Tree)
Eran Riklis, who directed and co-wrote with Suha Arraf (they also collaborated on The Syrian Bride), has made a compelling movie that takes its strength from the ground-level picture it gives of the human aspect of the problems in that part of the world.Jonathan F. Richards-Film.com
The two Israelis who take her side are female, which underscores the film's message: a little less machismo might save a lot more than trees.
Andrea Gronvall-Chicago Reader
The pungence of Lemon Tree is in the surreal moments that capture the pervasive unease in Gaza, and in the quiet strength of Abbass' performance.
Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch
This is a film about a problem, not a solution, and it's effectively upsetting.
Tom Long-Detroit News
The story, based on a real incident, may be simplistic, but that's the nature of fables. The direction is sure-handed, and the acting is good, particularly by the very appealing Abbass.
Walter V. Addiego-San Francisco Chronicle
Lemon Tree offers the bittersweet satisfaction of understanding a thorny situation a bit better. In a uniformly strong cast, Hiam Abbass is outstanding as the proud, lovely Salma.
Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune
A touching tale of forbidden fruit in the Middle East.
Don Groves-sbs.com.au
En general no me gusta decir que una película es "necesaria" (un facilismo rimbombante en el que suelen caer muchos críticos), pero en este caso debo hacer una excepción.
Enrique Buchichio-Uruguay Total
Abbass's starkly moving performance and the film's closing shots make this metaphor for the unsolvable unforgettable.
Brandon Judell-CultureCatch
The vivid cinematography gives the viewer glimpses of scenic locations throughout Israel. This is a quiet and somber journey that allows lots of time for thought and reflection on the current state of affairs in the Middle East.
Keith Cohen-Entertainment Spectrum
While the entire cast is very good, Abbass must carry most of the film, with little dialogue. Her subtly expressive face is a script unto itself, conveying everything from formal, traditional modesty to angry defiance.
Robert W. Butler-Kansas City Star
Has a distinct point of view on the Israeli-Palestinian impasse, but expresses it with considerable finesse as well as emotional power.
Frank Swietek-One Guy's Opinion
The sensuousness of Lemon Tree is its glory.
Michael Sragow-Baltimore Sun
Writer-director Eran Riklis handles these questions subtly and thoughtfully, tying the little struggle over the trees to larger issues without turning "Lemon Tree" into a parable.
Rob Thomas-Capital Times (Madison, WI)
It's worth seeing Lemon Tree simply for the performance of Hiam Abbass, who is magnificent in her dignity and determination.
Sarah Boslaugh-Playback:stl
The Lemon Tree has a big plot hole that's overcome by both Abbass' efforts and the story's tone: dramatic but frustrated and slyly deadpan at heart.
Stan Hall-Oregonian
Being dry is not necessarily a bad thing for a movie, at least when that dryness includes humor. But Lemon Tree is too dour and too humorless for its own good.
Jeff Vice-Deseret News, Salt Lake City
It's not fantastic, but if you like Abbass in The Visitor, she's even better here.
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press
While the script crackles along, the visuals are powerfully uninteresting.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy

Movie Overview For Etz Limon (Lemon Tree)
Salma Zidane, a widow, lives simply from her grove of lemon trees in the West Bank's occupied territory. The Israeli defense minister and his wife move next door; the Secret Service orders the trees removed for security. The stoic Salma seeks assistance from the Palestinian Authority (useless), Israeli army (dismissive), and a young attorney, Ziad Daud, who takes the case; this older client attracts him. While the courts deliberate, the Israelis fence her trees and prohibit her from entering the grove. As the trees wither, the defense minister's wife and, separately, an Israeli journalist, look on Salma with sympathy. In this allegory, does David stand a chance against Goliath?TagLine Etz Limon (Lemon Tree)
