Fadia's Tree
This striking documentary follows a Palestinian woman living in a refugee camp in Lebanon and her ambition to reconnect with her ancestral homeland.
Director: Sarah Beddington
Overview
Sarah Beddington’s film is a compelling account of her friendship with Fadia, a charismatic Palestinian woman and teacher who has lived her whole life in a refugee camp in Lebanon but is determined to reconnect with her ancestral homeland. This striking, deeply poetic and profound film makes connections to bird migration and the healing power of a particular tree against the backdrop of history, as well as the cruel fate that separates a people from their homeland.
