Music for Filasṭīn
With Shadi Zaqtan, Maysa Daw, Farah Siraj & Ashira Darwish

Come join a musical moment that will resonate as a reaffirmation of Palestinian humanity, identity and unbowed spirit in the face of displacement, occupation and ethnic cleansing.

Experience the power of music to elevate the Palestinian struggle for liberation. Music for Filasṭīn merges the personal and political, the artistic and the revolutionary into a singular exaltation of Palestinian perseverance.

'Where Olive Trees Weep' is a poignant, heartbreaking film about the struggles and resilience of 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. It features Dr. Gabor Maté as he offers trauma-healing work to Palestinian women tortured in Israeli prisons.

The program expands on the themes explored in the film and provides a larger historical and social context. Access to the program and the film is by donation.
