In the 1970s, a group of dreamers in Israel embarked on a utopian experiment, giving birth to Neve Shalom—a village envisioned as a model of harmonious coexistence between Arabs and Jews. Despite their noble aspirations, this community was entangled in internal conflicts and beset by external challenges that tested their revolutionary vision. This groundbreaking documentary delves into the experiences of the children who came of age in this extraordinary setting. Now adults, they grapple with the harsh realities of political turmoil, war, and societal segregation. Through their personal stories, “Children of Peace” seeks to scrutinize whether Neve Shalom offered a genuine opportunity for peaceful coexistence or was, ultimately, nothing more than a social experiment.
Followed by a conversation with director Maayan Schwartz via Zoom, moderated by Tarek Masoud, professor of democracy and governance at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government.
