Israel | 2015 | Harvey Stein
The humanistic teachings of the late Israeli peacemaker Rabbi Menachem Froman are the focus of this new documentary by an American-born writer and filmmaker who has lived in Israel since 2006. The film follows a tiny West Bank movement of settlers and Palestinians who have decided that, whatever the future brings, they want to get to know the strangers who are their neighbors. Despite resistance from their own communities (and possible danger), these pioneers decide to cross the chasms of fear and hatred and meet in nearby Palestinian villages or Israeli settlements for the first time. Can these new alliances weather the storms, and possibly have a larger effect? Is it possible to imagine a win-win solution for settlers and Palestinians? A Third Way looks for it in these growing Arab-Israeli friendships. Stein will discuss his film after the screening. DVD. 89 min.
Co-presented by the Cleveland Jewish Dialogue Group; special thanks to Alan Federman
