8 p.m. Mideast Focus Film Series presents: East Jerusalem/West Jerusalem (discussion)

March 5, 2021 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm

EAST JERUSALEM/WEST JERUSALEM

Please note the new time for the online discussion—8 p.m.

American, Israeli, and Palestinian musicians record a new album. And, in defiance of Israel’s dark realities, start a new program for children living under occupation.

Israeli singer-songwriter David Broza sets out to realize his dream of cooperation and dialog between Israelis and Palestinians through music. During 8 days and nights of joint creation by his mixed Jewish and Muslim band in an East Jerusalem studio, a hopeful message of equality and unity arises. Featuring Steve Earle and Mira Awad.
