Une bouteille à la mer: Less than a hundred kilometers separate Jerusalem and Gaza. Jerusalem is home to Tal, a 17-year-old recent French immigrant, and Gaza is the home of Naïm, a 20-year-old Palestinian confined there. After witnessing a bombing at her local café, Tal refuses to accept that only hatred can exist between two peoples. She slips a message into a bottle and tosses it into the Gaza Sea. From such a beginning, can a friendship follow?

Une oasis sur la colline: "This inspiring documentary follows Omer and Rami, who grew up in Neve Shalom/Wahat al-Salom, an Israeli village where Jews and Arabs have peacefully coexisted for over 40 years"--Container.
