The pro-Palestinian, anti-capitalist, BDSM-provocative, techno-punk performance art ensemble Hatari unsurprisingly drew attention to themselves with their performance at the Icelandic qualifiers for the Eurovision Song Contest. So much so that they won and therefore were allowed to perform at the main event in Tel Aviv. But what now? Should they boycott the event, swallow their idealism, or use their airtime to criticise the host country for their illegal occupation of Palestine? The Icelandic director Anna Hildur joins the boys in the band all the way to the fateful final.

[Göteborg FF] Accompanying the Icelandic group Hatari in their participation in the Eurovision Contest held in Tel-Aviv, and their political position in favor of Palestine, the film raises an interesting reflection on music as entertainment or as a vehicle to convey an ideology. Can we be apolitical in a society where everything is political? It works beyond the portrait of an eminently provocative musical band.
