In the midst of darkness, we discover who we truly are.
Join us in a sacred space for a special preview screening of There Is Another Way followed by a meaningful conversation with filmmakers and Combatants for Peace members centered on collective liberation.
There Is Another Way, a powerful new documentary, tells the story of a group of visionaries – Combatants for Peace – who refuse to surrender to violence and injustice, and in doing so show that another path is possible – for them, for us, and for all humanity. As we are all faced with essential questions about who we are, will we choose collective liberation, where the needs, rights, and safety of all are prioritized – in which our humanity comes first, knowing that no one is free until everyone is free.
Combatants for Peace is an extraordinary bi-national group of former enemy combatants – Israelis and Palestinians – working together during an ongoing armed conflict. Confronted with the devastation and escalating violence of October 7th and the war in Gaza, the very core of the movement faces great challenges in showing that there is another way. The first question they must move past relates to their own beliefs…is this possible?
