Where Olive Trees Weep is a heartbreakingly beautiful and poignant new film about the struggles and resilience of Palestinians living under Israeli occupation. It explores themes of loss, trauma, and the quest for justice. We follow, among others, Palestinian journalist and therapist Ashira Darwish, grassroots activist Ahed Tamimi, and Israeli journalist Amira Hass. It features Dr. Gabor Maté offering trauma healing work for Palestinian women who have been tortured in Israeli prisons.
