Refusing to be Enemies- the Zeitouna Story
A 58-minute documentary about six Arab and six Jewish women who struggle to overcome their prejudices, fears, and anger through dialogue.  Produced and directed by Laurie White, a pioneering member of Zeitouna, this film profiles the unique sisterhood of these twelve women who find that their diverse backgrounds have more in common than they originally believed. Inspired by participation in Zeitouna, White saw the groups experience as a teaching model for others to achieve respectful coexistence over the hardest issues. The film captures how trust in the group is built and how this marks the beginning of a process whereby each Zeitouna women reaches a new understanding of one of the most divisive struggles of our time: the Israel-Palestine conflict. It is through Zeitouna that I was able to hear the voice of the other  their pain and their joy, only to realize that it mirrors my own, says Wadad Abed, member of Zeitouna. This has profoundly transformed me. I am now more than ever committed to become one.The film culminates in a two-week sojourn in Israel and Palestine, an inspiring testament to the power of dialogue and the critical role that personal transformation takes on the long road to peace.This film is coming out at a powerful time...We're hungry for alternatives that can work.  And the women of Zeitouna offer a way for people to trade suspicion and fear of others for trust and genuine caring.' -Lori Carey, Pastor, Trinity Lutheran Church, Ann Arbor MI.
