The initiative was born against the backdrop of conflict and aims to provide a platform for young artists to express themselves through their craft. Each film, ranging in length from 3 to 6 minutes, presents a unique perspective on the current reality in Gaza.

Following the screening will be a live (via video link) audience Q & A with special guest Rashid Masharawi, a renowned Palestininan filmaker and the producer of From Ground Zero.

Included at the event will be booths for Amnesty International:Okanagan and CJPME:Okanagan. Palestinian olive oil and Za'atar will be for sale; along with chocolate from Peace by Chocolate.

All the proceeds from the ticket sales will go to the UNRWA:Gaza Emergency Appeal.

"FROM GROUND ZERO mixes dramatic storytelling, documentary, animation — all genres of cinema to make this one of the most compelling films you’ll see this year. Working with whatever tools they were able to pull from the rubble of their homes and their cities, these filmmakers have come together to share these stories with us."
