At the center of a labyrinth of graffiti-covered streets lies the Jenin Freedom Theater, founded by Juliano Mer-Khamis in the 1980s to give Palestinian youth a creative outlet. Mer-Khamis, who was tragically gunned down this past year, takes Charlie on an eye-opening journey through Jenin. As he walks the dirt roads with Juliano, Charlie is presented with a rare and risky opportunity: the chance to meet Zakaria Zubeidi, the former Jenin chief of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades. http://news.linktv.org/videos/explore-raindrops-over-rwanda?start=0 How does a nation torn apart by the nightmare of genocide reconcile its past and live together in the present?
