Jerusalem Peace film portraits a city of conflict and hope
Independent filmmaker Mark Benjamin and wife Elizabeth Fink Benjamin led a small crew into Jerusalem to chronicle the “City of Peace” for an hour long PBS documentary. The film presents a human view of a city shaped by Roman, Arab, Jewish, Islamic and Christian histories, with commentary from figures like L Y Rahmani and Teddy Kollek. The project, first shown at MoMA in New York, aims to depict daily life amid religious and political clashes without a fixed conclusion.
