The documentary Budrus will be screened on the Wake Forest campus in Annenberg Forum of Carswell Hall on Wednesday, March 23 at 7 p.m.  Producer Jessica Devaney will be onhand to answer questions following the film.

Budrus is the name of a Palestinean village in the West Bank, and this film looks at a largely non-violent protest during 2003-2004 when Israeli forces started construction of a security fence that was to uproot hundreds of olive trees in Budrus.  This film, which has enjoyed a successful run on the film festival circuit, offers an inside look at that conflict, and it is a compelling story.

The screening is free and open to the public.
