I Shall Not Hate

I Shall Not Hate follows the uncharted path of Dr. Izzeldin Abuelaish, The first Palestinian doctor who worked in an Israeli hospital delivering babies, whose ethos of forgiveness and reconciliation is put to the ultimate test when an Israeli tank bombs his house, killing his three daughters. Against all odds, he turns his tragedy into a global campaign to eradicate hate. Following the Hamas attack on October 7th and the war on Gaza ever since the doctor's journey becomes even more fateful to the possibility of imagining a future for Palestinians and Israelis. 'I Shall Not Hate' is a letter of tolerance from a deeply inspiring man with a message as urgent as ever.
