synopsis

The documentary feature film presents a rare and intimate view of Palestinian farmers and their ancient olive trees, which have been integral to Palestinian culture and well-being for thousands of years. Palestinian-American anthropologist and social entrepeneur Dr. Nasser Abufarh brings thousands of small-scale olive farmers together in fair trade cooperatives that connect them to global markets and create a future for their families.
