On Sunday March 11th there will be a showing of two short films about the Israel-Palestine conflict. The first, “Bethlehem: Hidden from View,” is about the strangling and walled imprisonment of the famous “Little Town of Bethlehem” and the impact on the local Christian community. The second film, “Gaza: A Gaping Wound,” tells the stories of the survivors of the Israeli military offensive that killed 2,200 people over 51 days in 2014. The showing begins at 2:30 pm at Saint John’s Norwood Episcopal Church, 6701 Wisconsin Avenue, in Chevy Chase, MD. It will be followed by a moderated discussion. Admission and parking are free.
