About this Event
BC’s Women Wage Peace supporter group -- together with co-sponsor Canadian Memorial Centre for Peace -- invites you to join us for another inspiring evening.
This award-winning documentary by Australia's Esther Takac (trauma therapist, author, and film-maker), shines a spotlight into the lives of Palestinian and Israeli women and men who lost a child or parent in the conflict. Instead of responding with hate and anger, Bushra, Rami, Meytal and Bassam are transforming their grief into a bridge for reconciliation and leading a movement of bereaved people to end the violence. Their stories are part of a controversial grassroots movement of ‘Israeli Palestinian Bereaved Families’ who stand side-by-side to end the violence and build a future based on dignity and equality. Despite fierce political and family opposition, they refuse to give up. This eye-opening documentary follows their paths from devastating trauma to courageous activism.
