Few films about the Middle East view history through the lens of the Palestinians, even though they are the people whose history and daily reality lie at the heart of events in the region. TRAGEDY IN THE HOLY LAND fills a void in conventional accounts of the Israeli/Palestinian struggle. It gives the viewer access to the voices and background of one of the most misunderstood and misinterpreted conflicts of the last century.

This provocative documentary addresses the core issues of land and identity. It probes the evolution of the seemingly incurable conflict in Palestine from a historical perspective that is typically unknown to American audiences.

Using rarely seen archival footage and interviews with various experts and scholars, TRAGEDY IN THE HOLY LAND offers vital information about the roots of the current conflict and the ongoing struggle for survival and dignity.

• Includes 50 minutes of bonus footage featuring in-depth examiniations of topics such as land leases, The Balfour Declaration, The Sykes-Picot Agreement, The Peel Commission, the second partition of Palestine, The Six-Day War, The War in Lebanon, The Cold War's affect on Palestine, The Oslo Accords and developments after September 11, 2001.
