Screening | Screams Before Silence: Documentary on Violence Against Women on October 7th
Despite the testimony of the survivors and medical professionals, the global response to the rapes of Israeli women on and after October 7 was tepid, at best; at worst it was rationalized or denied. Where was the outrage? Last December, Sheryl Sandberg, Founder of Lean In, joined Hillary Clinton and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand at the United Nations to berate the world for refusing to take seriously the scope of the brutal sexual violence against Israeli women. Sandberg then went a step further, working with a team of Israeli filmmakers to expose both the brutality and the silence around it in a powerful and chilling documentary film. Followed by a discussion with: -- Simcha Greiniman, Deputy Commander, Zaka, Israel's leading non-governmental international search & rescue organization -- Professor Ruth Halperin-Kaddari, Founding Director, Rackman Center for the Advancement of the Status of Women, Bar-Ilan University. -- Eytan Schwartz, Co-Producer -- Special virtual appearance by Sheryl Sandberg
