Abstract
"On Memorial Day Week End of 2007, I Wage Peace founder and Connecticut native Bruce Barrett, with artist Russell Rainbolt, and Documentary film maker Tom Jackson, joined 100 Israeli and Palestinian children and former Israeli soldiers and former Palestinian armed resisters to hand paint a giant 48-foot long Peace mural in the West Bank of occupied Palestine. The sign was received at religious services in the West Bank and Israel, then shipped to the United States to a Connecticut mosque, a synagogue, and a church, and finally posted on Connecticut Interstate I-95 and RT 84. Their journey with the handpainted sign is documented in this award winning film which has screened internationally and received four film festival awards."
