Publisher's Summary

How is suffering, either of personal or historical significance, measured? How does one move beyond the desire for vengeance? These questions are complicated by historical record; how did events really unfold? For Israelis and Palestinians, one land has two histories, and which version you accept depends on who you are. Tragedy is still fresh in the memories of both sides, complicating the peace process. Addressing history openly from both perspectives is one of the means being used to find ways of bringing people together and taking steps to resolve the conflict. Producer Deborah Amos travels to the West Bank to uncover the opinions and perceptions of both Israelis and Palestinians regarding the peace process following the Oslo Accords.
