Encounter Point moves beyond sensational and dogmatic rnimages to tell the story of four civilians who sacrifice their safety, public rnstanding, communities and homes in order to press for a grassroots movement rnfor non-violence and peace.rnrnThese true civic leaders-an Israeli settler, a convicted Palestinian fighter, rna bereaved Israeli mother and a wounded Palestinian ex-prisoner-navigate rnsuicide bombings and checkpoints to meet with militants on both sides. Their rnjourneys lead them to the unlikeliest places, as they stem hatred among their rnpeople and confront the fear within themselves. Encounter Point explores what rndrives these, and thousands of other, like-minded civilians to overcome anger rnand grief to work for peace, and asks why-with the world\'s cameras focused on rnthis conflict-the public has never heard about these courageous and vital rnefforts.rnrnEncounter Point chronicles a movement to push Palestinian and Israeli societies rntowards a tipping point, towards a new consensus for non-violence and peace. rnPerhaps, years from now, the actions of these everyday leaders will be rnrecognized as a catalyst for constructive change in the region.rnrnrnrn--
