Music for Filasṭīn
With Shadi Zaqtan, Maysa Daw, Farah Siraj & Ashira Darwish
Come join a musical moment that will resonate as a reaffirmation of Palestinian humanity, identity and unbowed spirit in the face of displacement, occupation and ethnic cleansing.
Experience the power of music to elevate the Palestinian struggle for liberation. Music for Filasṭīn merges the personal and political, the artistic and the revolutionary into a singular exaltation of Palestinian perseverance.
'Where Olive Trees Weep' is a poignant, heartbreaking film about the struggles and resilience of Palestinian people 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 as he offers trauma-healing work to Palestinian women tortured in Israeli prisons.
The program expands on the themes explored in the film and provides a larger historical and social context. Access to the program and the film is by donation.

It speaks volumes to me to see Ashira playing with her baby. We are divine. I wish all her dreams will come true because they are the dreams of our divine souls

Justice for Palestine! Free Palestine, end the occupation now!

Several quotes about music I have read: "Music is the VOICE of the SOUL", "Behind every song is an Untold story"...each of those songs was giving voice to one's own story and each brought me to tears! My deepest thanks and gratitude to you all for sharing such marvelous, awe-inspiring creative music! (By the way, I, too, would agree with Shadi about Bliken and the entire genocide american war machine)....Free Palestine!

Maysa’s love story sounds like Romeo and Juliette in a grown up relationship of resilience, steadfastness and transcendence.
