    Documentary about Olympia native and Evergreen State College senior Rachel Corrie, who was killed in 2003 while attempting to prevent a Palestinian family's home in the Gaza Strip from being bulldozed by the Israeli Defense Force. The film is a meticulous and rigorous investigation into the circumstances of Rachel's death, which remains officially unresolved to this day, and features interviews with members of the International Solidarity Movement, the group with which Rachel was working at the time of her death, and current and former members of the Israeli Defense Force. In addition, the film illustrates the complexities of peace activism, through conversations both with those from whom Rachel drew inspiration and those who have made peace activism their life's work.
