American broadcast and print journalist Maurice Jacobsen constructs a video portrait of life in Gaza after a series of devastating bombardments by Israel. His work attempts to build bridges of understanding between the Arab and Jewish and American communities.

The evening begins with a history of the Gaza Strip and video preview screening of footage he made between Israel’s recent military campaigns against this small Palestinian territory. The video, WE ALL LIVE IN GAZA, is based on footage he recorded during his stay and highlights stories of ordinary citizens coping with the siege and blockade, the longest in contemporary history.
