Luther Hall
Gloria Dei Lutheran Church
1515 Harrison Ave NW
Olympia WA 98502

There will be time for questions and commentary from:

"Gaza Strip" pushes the viewer headlong into the tumult of the Israeli-occupied Gaza, examining the lives and views of ordinary Palestinians."

"Gaza Strip is an unflinchingly honest portrayal of a population under siege. As a perspective that is largely excluded from American attention, it deserves the widest possible audience."

-- The Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, Jan/Feb 2002
