Shalom House Film Series


On Tuesday May 27th, Shalom House presented the second film in our Israeli/Palestinian Film Series, "Little Town of Bethlehem" (2010). 'Little Town of Bethlehem" is a documentary featuring how Israelis, Palestinians, Israeli Defense Force members, civilians, Jews, Muslims and Christians are using non-violent resistance to oppose the occupation of Palestine in the Palestinian city of Bethlehem. Over 25 people came to the screening and film discussion. Shalom House will be showing a new film in the series every last Tuesday of the month through September at 7PM at Frankford & Norris. The June film is "Budrus," a documentary about how one small Palestinian town used non-violent resistance to oppose the building of the Separation Wall through their town and their ancestral olive tree groves.
