ShareThisSEEDS (2004)
SEEDS is an intimate and candid documentary of the incredible stories and experiences at the heart of Seeds of Peace and it shows exactly how it feels to come from a region of conflict surrounded by hatred and violence and learn to coexist with "the enemy." It is a fascinating first-person testament that reveals how, with effort and determination, a peaceful future may be achieved. Principal photography occurred during sessions held in the summer of 2002 and editing commenced in April of 2003. This full-length documentary film, produced by Merge:Media, premiered June 2004 at the Silverdocs Film Festival in Silver Spring, Maryland, and is now showing at international film festivals.
