Tel Aviv on Fire as part of the Saint Mark’s Mideast Focus Ministry Middle East Film Series

February 28, 2020 @ 6:15 pm - 9:00 pm UTC+0

Please join our brothers and sisters at Saint Mark’s Mideast Focus Ministry for a film series to educate and promote understanding about the struggle for peace and justice in the Holy Land.  Each screening includes presentations by guest speakers with personal experience on the subject. The opening film “Tel Aviv on Fire” will feature guest speaker playwright Ed Mast.

Our film series begins with humor because it is the most bearable coping device. Through satire we get perspective on our common humanity. Then we look at how Gazans try to make their desperate situation known to the world, how families endure when their children are forcibly removed from their homes and placed in military prisons, and how they cope when their homes are demolished before their eyes. Finally, we explore some of the factors explaining why the U.S. leads the way in supporting this occupation.

Film Series Dates Include:

  • February 28, 2020: Tel Aviv on Fire (catered reception at 6:15 p.m, movie at 7pm)
  • March 27, 2020: Gaza Fights for Freedom
