DESCRIPTION:Second Saturday Documentary Series presents\nGAZA STILL ALIVE\n\nA 
 documentary revealing the mental health catastrophe among Palestinians in 
 the impoverished Gaza Strip, amid ongoing war trauma and after a decade of 
 isolation from the world.\n\nWhen you think of Gaza, you may think of war 
 and destroyed buildings. But Gaza’s story is one of much more than 
 destruction. Gaza Still Alive decidedly overlooks the politics of 
 Palestinian in-fighting and Israeli occupation. Rather, it focuses on the 
 scars and craters inside ordinary civilians’ minds.\n\nJournalist Harry 
 Fear returns to the Gaza Strip to learn how civilians he met during the 
 2014 war are still coping with the effects of war trauma. The film reveals 
 the mental health catastrophe in Gaza after years of bloody conflict with 
 Israel and a decade of suffocating isolation from the world. This is the 
 story of endemic war trauma in the impoverished territory, through the eyes 
 of ordinary civilians and the psychologists tasked with supporting them 
 against all odds.\n\nAs part of our Second Saturday Documentary Series, 
 Gaza Still Alive will be shown via Zoom Saturday, August 13, at 1:30 p.m. 
 There will be a discussion immediately following the film.\n\nYou can 
 register for this screening and other films in the series 
 at https://bit.ly/SSDSZoom .\n\nThis documentary seeks to convey the 
 exquisite pain and hardship that is life, being a Palestinian in Gaza — 
 for the ordinary person, the person just trying to get by, the person who's 
 seen 3 wars, the person who's a refugee. Most people in Gaza have lost 
 someone or know of someone lost; most have experienced direct traumatic 
 events. Most live with the atmosphere of confinement. Most feel 
 imprisoned.\n\nThis is the story of Gazans’ immense invisible suffering, 
 through the eyes of ordinary civilians and the psychologists tasked with 
 supporting them against all odds.\n\nThe Second Saturday Documentary Series 
 is co-sponsored by Niles Discovery Church and the San Jose Peace & Justice 
 Center\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2022/08/07/18851456.php
