I was unable to submit Palestine as Country of Origin to this film.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6448618/

The country Palestine did not exist on/in 2012.
Please choose the appropriate equivalent country which did exist then instead.

WTF ?! how did IMDb came up with this historical wrong-fact ?

Palestine certainly exists: I have been there, crossing from the Jordanian border. Should Imdb let itself get dragged into political quagmires? I respect ALL sides involved in this dispute, but as a practical matter, if you don't place a person or film as Palestinian, then where exactly? Plus many countries DO recognize Palestine. A film industry site shouldn't have to KOWTOW to anyone, ever.

Exactly the point.
IMDb is basically telling me, We do not acknowledge Palestine as a Country..
this leaves me with ''Occupied Palestinian Territory'' as a choice.
