Film Screening: The War Around Us is the true story of the only two international journalists on the ground in Gaza as Israel bombarded and invaded in 2008-9. Al Jazeera’s Cairo-born, Arab-American Ayman Mohyeldin and Arab-British Sherine Tadros reported from Gaza City throughout the devastating 22-day assault. This riveting and introspective award-winning film chronicles the bonds of friendships under stress, the ethics of journalism in conflict, and people’s resilience during war. With never-before-seen footage and testimonies reported from one of the most besieged places on earth, the film bears witness to how Gaza changed these two world-famous journalists forever.
