"At the Green Line" is a 2005 documentary made by Jesse Atlas that profiles several members of "Courage to Refuse", a political group that refuses service in the Israeli military, as well as several Israelis serving in the military as part of their reserve duty. The Green Line refers to the 1949 Armistice line between Israel and Syria, the Jordanian-held West Bank, and Egyptian-held Gaza Strip.

The film takes a look at the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians from the perspective of soldiers in the Israeli Defence Force. Specifically, it discusses the motivations of those who refuse service, as well as the feelings of soldiers actively serving, weighing various issues related to suicide bombings, checkpoints, and the West Bank barrier.
