, featuring the journey of two American Jews who explored the untaught story of settler occupation and American allegiance to Israel. We continue the education around Palestinian life, loss, and genocide by sharing additional perspective of the Israel/Palestine relationship that is often hidden. Stories that are told often twist and flip the reality of a settler occupation.  A must-see film made in 2022 as part of a series to highlight current day occupation in order to educate this deeply important moment of truth for our time.

Where Olive Trees Weep offers a searing window into the struggles and resilience of the Palestinian people under Israeli occupation. It explores themes of loss, trauma, and the quest for justice. We follow, among others, Palestinian journalist and therapist Ashira Darwish, grassroots activist Ahed Tamimi, and Israeli journalist Amira Hass. We witness Dr. Gabor Maté offering trauma-healing work for a group of women who have been tortured in Israeli prisons. Ancient landscapes bear deep scars, having witnessed the brutal reality of ancestral land confiscation, expulsions, imprisonment, home demolitions, water deprivation, and denial of basic human rights. Yet, through the veil of oppression, we catch a glimpse of resilience—deep roots that have carried the Palestinian people through decades of darkness and shattered lives. This emotional journey bares the humanity of the oppressed while grappling with the question: what makes the oppressor so ruthlessly blind to its own cruelty?
