Land of Canaan is a feature documentary offering a rare and intimate portrait of Palestinian farmers and their ancient olive trees, many of which are more than 1,000 years old. At its heart is a Palestinian-American anthropologist, entrepreneur, and son of a watermelon farmer who brings thousands of small-scale olive farmers together through fair trade cooperatives, connecting them to global markets while helping preserve millennia of ecological knowledge and cultural heritage.
After the film we will have a Q&A with Dr. Nasser Abufara, Founder of Canaan Palestine and the Palestinian Fair Trade Association.
