2. A Video: "Missing Peace: Women of Faith and the Failure of War"
by Old Dog Documentaries
(With the shakuhachi of Mary Lu Brandwein participating in the sound track)
This documentary looks at the widening polarization of religions today and how violence toward the other binds people around the world in deepening fear and grief. More specifically, it looks at how religion is being used as a justification for war. Six women (two Muslims, two Jews, and two Christians) present a bold strategy for achieving peace personally, interpersonally, and globally.
