The Unitarian Universalists of San Luis Obispo are pleased to present the 2023 film Israelism, a balanced and powerful documentary about two Jewish young adults, Simone Zimmerman, cofounder of "If Not Now" and Eitan, a former Israel Defense Force soldier who go to Palestine and "unlearn" everything they have been taught about defending the state of Israel at all costs.
The documentary challenges viewers to think critically and fosters empathy, making it a must-watch for anyone interested in the conflict, human rights, and global politics.
We look forward to an open, respectful discussion after the film. Everyone is welcome.
