Every year we remember Bethlehem as we celebrate Christmas and sing carols of Jesus’ birth. But there is another story, that of the suffering of Bethlehem. Trapped behind a 25 foot separation wall, for the Palestinians of the Bethlehem area life is devastated by what amounts to imprisonment.
This film looks at what is happening to Bethlehem and its neighbour Hebron, seen through the eyes of the local Christians, known as the ‘living stones’ or ‘forgotten faithful’.
It is a wake up call to the worldwide church, to be aware of our brothers and sisters, struggling for their very survival, to listen to their voices and respond with our support.
