DESCRIPTION:Jacobsen relates the resourcefulness of Palestinians in coping with the 
 Israeli lockdown of Gaza, the recent Egyptian moves to re-open the border 
 at Rafah, his views of the recent exchanges between Obama and Netanyahu, 
 the upcoming flotilla challenging the naval blockade, and his general 
 pessimism about the “peace process”. \n\nInshaAllah is a feature length 
 documentary chronicling life in Gaza, featuring interwoven profiles of 
 Gazans living under siege and creating a window of communications between 
 the people “inside” Gaza and the Western world.\n\n\nProducer and 
 director Maurice Jacobsen lived in the Gaza Strip for 12 months, the only 
 independent Western journalist to do so. According to Jacobsen, “The goal 
 of the project is to show Gaza as a society that is diverse, intelligent, 
 hard working and creative. At the same time it is a community that is 
 deeply troubled, living under a complete political, economic and military 
 siege. I think,” he adds, “Gaza is completely misunderstood and a 
 documentary like Inshallah can hopefully help.”\n\n\nMaurice Jacobsen is 
 an independent documentary producer/director who has worked on projects 
 throughout the world for the past thirty years. With projects produced for 
 PBS America and Discovery Channel Europe, he is now returning to Gaza to 
 continue chronicling life in the besieged area.\n\n \n\nTransportation will 
 be available to and from Jerusalem. For information and to reserve a place, 
 please call 02 6241150 or email aic@alt-info.org . \n\n\nWe hope you will 
 join us!\n\n\nThe AIC is a joint Palestinian-Israeli activist organization
