A train, with a camera mounted near the
front, pulls out of the Jerusalem station. It passes groups, first of
Europeans, then Palestinian Arabs, then Palestinian Jews. Dress, hats, and
facial hair are each distinctive group to group. Except for the station itself,
the buildings visible in the background are ruins - no more than crumbling
walls.
