There is Another Way tells the story of a group of visionaries who refuse to sur render to violence and injustice\, and in doing so show that another path is possible – for them\, for us\, and for all humanity. As we are all fa ced with essential questions about who we are\, will we choose collective liberation\, where the needs\, rights\, and safety of all are prioritized – in which our humanity comes first\, knowing that no one is free until everyone is free.\n\nCombatants for Peace\, nominated for two Nobel Peace Prizes\, is an extraordinary bi-national group of former enemy combatants – Israelis and Palestinians – working together during an ongoing armed conflict. Confronted with the devastation and escalating violence of Octo ber 7th and the war in Gaza\, the very core of the movement faces great ch allenges in showing that there is another way. The first question they mus t answer relates to their own beliefs…is this possible?\n\nA follow up t o the award-winning documentary Disturbing the Peace (2016)\, which is abo ut questioning the narrative we are born into\, There is Another Way is ab out choosing our future. It takes courage to walk a path even when you you rself feel overwhelmed and afraid—a path where you don’t know the fina l answer\, only that it will emerge from standing in the grief of what we\ , as humanity\, have experienced and created and find yourself unable to t urn away.\n\nJoin us after the film for a Q&\;A with:\n\nStephen Apkon (Director)\, an award-winning filmmaker and social entrepreneur.
