We had a good crowd for this film on the Jaffa Orange
and its place in the occupation of Palestine.
Laurie Kirby sang two songs at the end, one of them
a very moving one about walls between people.
Several people who want to show it local churches

This is just a great film. The self contained chapters mean that you can stop it at any time. The showing resulted in several people who want to show it local churches, and at least one mosque. We had a good crowd of people, and as always, a interesting discussion at the end. Paul Rehm talked about his trips to the West Bank and answered questions.

We had a nice end to our film series, and plan to start another series in the fall. There were about 45 people in the audience to hear Ellie and then Jeff. We did a collection for Ellie's film that I think did very well. In all, a great night. Thanks to all those who brought food, and again to Jane who booked our quests and introduced them to the audience.
Land and Hope
We had a lot of people for this film and special event. Rami and Taha talked about friendship more than politics, but their relationship revealed many truths that the facts of the occupation often leave out. Rami's description of the fear and lack of knowledge of Israeli citizens was particularly insightful. Thanks to Jane for putting this all together.
Film Screening of "Private"
Great movie, but small turnout to see it. We did have a good discussion at the end.
For the future, we will combine a film showing with a panel or a talk by a director, as we did in the first movie of this series.
