By the time it's over, you see the old conflicts with new eyes. Go to Full Review
Michael Rechtshaffen Los Angeles Times 10/12/2017
Other than serving as potential homework for Jared Kushner, there just isn't much of value in "Surviving Peace," a self-serving documentary dialogue on the century-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict ... Go to Full Review
Nick Schager Village Voice 10/04/2017
As amateurish as its 1990-grade VHS title graphics, Surviving Peace is possibly the clunkiest - and most one-sided - film ever made about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Go to Full Review

It is a must see because it discusses another option other than a 2 state solution. See more 10/29/2017 This film is a breath of fresh air in an otherwise stale debate over the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It dares us to think more creatively about how we might make progress towards peace in the current impasse. Great movie! See more 10/29/2017 This documentary film, captured the true struggle, in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The two state ideological solution, is not realistic, it never really has been. The concept of a Confederation, offers both sides of this conflict, an opportunity to have their voices heard, to be represented and to feel a part of one's own society. It can commence not only a path to peace, but will establish more importantly, a sense of cohesion. Humans have the need to belong to their community, to share their religion, traditions, culture and core values. Recognizing these basic principles, allows us, to visualize the concept of a Confederation, that can promote the needs of all people engaged in this conflict and to offer them a more humanitarian and harmonious existence. This documentary, provided not only a glimpse, into what actions have historically failed in the past but more importantly, it proffered a tactical and open minded solution to the profoundly important future of Israeli-Palestinian relations.
