Event Date: Wednesday, May 9, 2012, 6:45 pmLocation: Screening Room A, Santa Clara University Library, Santa Clara, CA Film Screening Sponsored by: Just Vision Presents BudrusIt Takes a Village to Unite the Most Divided People On Earth.Community organizer Ayed Morrar began a program of peaceful protest, uniting Fatah and Hamas supporters as well as Israeli civilians, when the Israeli Separation Barrier threatened to wipe out his village of Budrus in the Palestinian West Bank. However, success was limited until his determined 15-year old daughter, Iltezam, mobilized a women's wing, revitalizing the campaign. In this inspiring documentary, filmed over months and months of protests, we witness the efforts of extraordinary individuals who take on the most rigid, violent political social divides to work collectively for peace.
