This documentary chronicles Rachel Corrie's humanitarian work with the International Solidarity Movement in Rafah, Gaza Strip. In March 2003, an Israeli soldier in a Caterpillar D-9 bulldozer crushed Corrie while she stood in front of a Palestinian home to prevent its demolition. Director Yahya Barakat, a professor in the Mass Media and TV Department at Al-Quds University in Jerusalem, worked for two years editing 80 hours of film footage from Gaza, the West Bank and Olympia, Washington to make the film. Corrie made a conscious decision to travel to Rafah and assess the root-causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Through interviews with her parents, viewers learn about Rachel. The result is a cinematic collage of international voices; people who work for peace and who support the Palestinians in their daily life activities. The result is a collective chastisement of the military occupation, the U.S. and Israeli Governments, as well as U.S. mainstream media.
