Archival footage vividly documents the escalation from mandate tensions, partition, and British withdrawal, to the emergence of Israel amidst widespread violence and displacement. Through personal diaries, eyewitness accounts, and rare historical archives, viewers gain profound insights into key moments, including the tragic massacre at Deir Yassin, the refugee crisis, the geopolitical tensions of the Suez Crisis, and pivotal wars of 1948, 1956, 1967, and 1973. The documentary scrutinizes major international interventions, the complexities of UN resolutions, and the diplomatic breakthroughs and limitations exemplified by the Camp David Accords. Expert commentary, combined with powerful personal testimonies, underscores the persistent repercussions of unresolved issues, emphasising the human impact of displacement, war, and diplomacy. From the Nakba to Camp David offers an indispensable historical context, reminding audiences that today's headlines are deeply rooted in the past's unresolved conflicts.
