En el 2003, el pueblo palestino de Budrus organizó una protesta no violenta de 10 meses de duración para detener la construcción de un muro en sus olivares. ¿Se enteraron de eso? Creo que no. La cineasta brasileña Julia Bacha pregunta por qué solo prestamos atención a la violencia en el conflicto israelo-palestino y no a los líderes no violentos que algún día podrían traer la paz.
