ABOUT THE FILM:
Palestinian doctor Izzeldin Abuelaish is a man with an unusually big heart. I Shall Not Hate follows his life’s journey from the Jabalia refugee camp in Gaza to the University of Toronto and the Israeli Supreme Court. Abuelaish was the first Palestinian doctor to work in an Israeli maternity ward. But when an Israeli tank bombs his house and kills his three daughters, his mission of forgiveness and reconciliation is put to the ultimate test.
