Strawberry Fields points out that strawberries grown in Gaza are the only agricultural product marketed internationally as being of Palestinian origin. One of the major Gaza strawberry farms in located at Beit Lahiya. More than 1,500 tons of strawberries are exported from Gaza to Europe through the Israeli company Agrexco. In order to get overseas, however, the fruits need to pass through the checkpoint that separates Israel and Gaza. The 2005–2006 growing season coincided with the Israel's disengagement from Gaza and the rise of Hamas as the ruling political entity. The armed conflict between Israel and Hamas resulted in the closing of the border checkpoint. The strawberries grown at Beit Lahiya cannot leave Gaza, resulting in significant losses for the farmers and their Agrexco partners. Unable to transport their produce, the farmers have no choice but to dispose of their crop and prepare for the following year’s growing season.

Film choc au style pamphlétaire, le documentaire brosse un portrait critique de la protection de la jeunesse au Québec. Il utilise des chiffres alarmants comme le nombre de signalements à la Direction de la protection de la jeunesse, les estimés du nombre de bébés victimes d’infanticide, le nombre d’enfants placés, etc. pour questionner la responsabilité citoyenne et institutionnelle face aux enfants en besoin de protection. Avec des extraits d’entrevues de victimes, il réfère à des exemples de situations graves et très médiatisés de maltraitance ou d’abus sexuels, comme ceux de Nathalie Simard ou celui du « Bourreau de Beaumont », qui a aussi fait les manchettes et qui a été l’objet d’une enquête de la Commission des droits de la personne et des droits de la jeunesse dans ce questionnement. Vingt-cinq ans après l’avènement de la Loi sur la protection de la jeunesse, le documentaire critique le système de protection de la jeunesse pour sa grosseur, ses lourdeurs administratives et certaines de ses pratiques.

Yves est considéré par l’institution hospitalière comme « inéducable et irrécupérable ». Pris en charge en 1958 par Fernand Deligny, éducateur singulier dont les tentatives de cures libres refusaient l’ordinaire des méthodes psychiatriques, Yves devient en 1962 le personnage central d’un film tourné dans les Cévennes. Yves et Richard s’évadent de l’asile. En se cachant, Richard tombe dans un trou. La fille d’un ouvrier de la carrière proche observe Yves resté seul et le ramène à l’asile.

There are five cameras — each with its own story. When his fourth son, Gibreel, is born in 2005, self-taught cameraman Emad Burnat, a Palestinian villager, gets his first camera. At the same time in his village of Bil’in, the Israelis begin bulldozing village olive groves to build a barrier to separate Bil'in from the Jewish Settlement Modi'in Illit. The barrier's route cuts off 60% of Bil'in farmland and the villagers resist this seizure of more of their land by the settlers.
