On October 29, 1956, 49 residents of the Palestinian village of Kafr Qasim were killed by police at the Israeli border—victims of an unannounced curfew brought forward. Using newly declassified transcripts, the film revisits the circumstances of the massacre, its repercussions, and the trial of the soldiers involved.

Through the testimonies of survivors, historians, journalists, and actors, The 1957 Transcripts sheds light on a long-concealed chapter of Israeli-Palestinian history, questioning memory, responsibility, and justice.
