La Turbine Humaine / The Human Turbine

What was missing in Noam Dotan’s otherwise perfect life? What made him, and others, leave symbols of success and devote themselves to a renewable energy project in a Palestinian village? They work through action, rather than through protest or demonstrations. Three years in the making, in joint meetings with local residents, they created a renewable energy project at Susia. They succeeded in supplying electricity for residents living in tents and caves, figuratively and literally lighting up their lives.
