As a teenager in Palestine, Sami al Jundi had one ambition:
overthrowing Israeli occupation. With two friends, he began to
build a bomb to use against the police. But when it exploded
prematurely, killing one of his friends, al Jundi was caught and
sentenced to ten years in prison.
It was in an Israeli jail that his unlikely transformation
began. Al Jundi was welcomed into a highly organized, democratic
community of political prisoners who required that members of their
cell read, engage in political discourse on topics ranging from
global revolutions to the precepts of nonviolent protest and
revolution.
Al Jundi left prison still determined to fight for his people's
rights--but with a very different notion of how to undertake that
struggle. He cofounded the Middle East program of Seeds of Peace
Center for Coexistence, which brings together Palestinian and
Israeli youth.
Marked by honesty and compassion for Palestinians and Israelis
alike, "The Hour of Sunlight" illuminates the Palestinian
experience through the story of one man's struggle for peace.
