Directed by Tor Ben-Mayor Israel/Palestine | 2012 | 75 minutes | Hebrew/Arabic with subtitles | Documentary
The film follows a group of 27 Palestinians and Israelis who meet under the frame of a unique project called "History through the Human Eye" led by Parents Circle-Families Forum: Bereaved Palestinian and Israelis for Peace and Reconciliation. Among them include bereaved families, Orthodox Jews and religious Muslims, settlers, ex-soldiers in the Israeli army, ex-security prisoners, citizens of the Gaza strip, kibbutz members, second generation holocaust survivors, non-violent activists and more. They are not trying to convince each other that their narrative is right, nor are they seeking a political solution. They have simply been asked to listen, to clarify the differences between how they grasp reality and how they see the other side.
The 14th annual Northern Virginia Jewish Film Festival, a program of the Jewish Community Center of Northern Virginia, runs March 20-30. Most films will be shown at Angelika Film Center & Café at Mosaic.
One Screening only Tuesday, March 25, 7:15pm with post-film discussion
