Join us for an inspirational one hour film following the stories of four Israeli and Palestinian individuals affected by the conflict followed by a Q  & A. 

From conflict to understanding, from trauma to hope - a journey into the souls of four  people who are transforming their searing pain into a bridge for reconciliation.

"THE NARROW BRIDGE is a compelling, profound and graceful film. It is a beautifully crafted story that traces four courageous journeys from terrible pain and loss to understanding and hope.

THE NARROW BRIDGE is a searching journey into the souls of four people who, after searing pain, develop strengths they never had before. We watch with wonder as Bushra, Rami, Meytal and Bassam, women and men who lost a child or parent in violent conflict, transform their grief into a bridge for reconciliation.

The film follows their paths from devastating trauma to courageous activism. But their stories are not just personal. They all belong to a controversial grassroots movement of broken-hearted people ‘Israeli Palestinian Bereaved Families’ who stand side-by-side to end the violence and build a future based on dignity and equality. Despite fierce political and family opposition, they refuse to give up.

"A most beautiful piece of work - when that degree of empathy is on display it is truly a work of art and a thing of wonder that draws you right in"
