Salt of This Sea – Soraya, a Palestinian refugee born in Brooklyn, discovers that her grandfather's savings were frozen in a bank account in Jaffa when he was exiled in 1948. Stubborn, passionate and determined to reclaim what is hers, she fulfills her life-long dream of "returning" to Palestine. Once there, slowly she is taken apart by the reality around her and she is forced to confront her own anger.

The Palestine Film Festival is an event to showcase films which help educate Americans across the United States about the situation in Palestine and the need for an equitable U.S. policy toward Palestine that advances freedom and equality for the Palestinian people.   The 2011 festival will run from April 20 to May 5, 2011 in central Indiana (Indianapolis, Bloomington and Plainfield). See the Indianapolis Facebook page for the schedule of film screenings.
