Award Honored Work:
Wide Angle: Heart of Jenin “Heart of Jenin” gently turns attention away from the screaming survivors, blaring sirens and angry mobs that so often define the conflict between Israel and Palestine to a father who finds a way to turn the tragic death of his son into a way of saving lives. The understated normalcy of this documentary illustrates humankind’s capacity for reconciliation and renewal.
