In August of 1982, toward the end of the First Lebanon War, two film students from Tel Aviv University, who had just returned from reserve duty, made the unusual decision to travel to Beirut. Equipped with a 16mm film camera and a simple recording device, the two returned to the sites of the battles they had participated in only a short while before. The result of this trip was Bokito: a thirty-minutes-long road movie that incorporates landscape and atmosphere shots with interviews with both IDF commanders and locals. The filmmakers express a piercing anti-military position. Bokito would become the first audio-visual expression of resistance to the First Lebanon War.
