Where Olive Trees Weep Film Screening + Mindfulness in Times of Crisis

Where Olive Trees Weep
No one is free until we are all free.

Where Olive Trees Weep is a poignant story about the struggles and resilience of the Palestinians after decades of Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The film offers a glimpse of the impact of settler colonialism and the devastating consequences of unresolved intergenerational trauma.

We explore the themes of loss, trauma, and the quest for justice through the every eyes of the people on the ground - Palestinian journalist and therapist Ashira Darwish, grassroots activist Ahed Tamimi and Israeli journalist Amira Hass. Witness Dr. Gabor Maté offering trauma-healing work for a group of women who have been tortured in Israeli prisons in this emotional journey.

The screening will be followed by mindful activities to help us process our emotions and make sense of the conflict. Though we live in uncertain and tumultuous times, we can still find hope in safe spaces. Together, we will give and receive comfort through sharing and guided meditation. Meditation is non-religious and accessible to everyone.

Our biggest hope is that this special event sparks your personal healing journey, and if possible, inspire your courageous actions for a peaceful world.

This is a non-profit event is approved by IMDA and proceeds will be donated to humantiarian relief in Gaza.
