This special poem captures how we feel for this wonderful time of year.
“A Christmas Poem” by Maya Angelouet
The bells ring and the children shout,
Let the presents fall and the cards abound,
Let the cakes be baked and the pies be warm…
But let us not forget
To give thanks for the love we have received.”
LOVE TO YOU FROM DREAM TEAM DIRECTORS

It's such a great feeling to create with my Dream Partner Bayou Bennett. We are hitting it out of the ballpark on every project as filmmakers and have won over 80 awards. But what is also really rewarding to us is that we are uplifting and inspiring the world through our storytelling.

Dear Friends and Family,
Bayou Bennett and I wanted to thank you for your incredible support of our mission to bring hope and understanding to the Middle East conflict through storytelling. We are almost there on our fundraising target to make our film "Shalom Salam" which means "Peace" in both Arabic and Hebrew.

This has not been an easy journey but nothing worthwhile is and also confronting war, mistrust, polarization and human suffering requires bravery.

To reach our goal, we are playing a game to get 200 people to support at the level of $25-100 so that we can complete the funding and prepare to shoot this film in March.

The upside is that with your help we can bring hope, show that what unites us is stronger than what divides us and inspire audiences that peace in the Middle East and in the world is possible through powerful, memorable storytelling.

Bayou and I are so grateful for you and let's carry it to over 100 awards and a better world together.

Dear Dreamers,

Bayou and I want to thank YOU from the bottom of our hearts for helping us reach $17,000 towards making our film, "Shalom Salaam".

I have been dreaming about telling a story of peace since I was 16 years old. Growing up in an Arabic fishing village in Israel, Jews, Christians, and Muslims ate from the same hummus pot and this coexistence was the seed of our film "Shalom Salam" which means "peace" in both Hebrew and Arabic.

We are very close to reaching our final target, so if you haven’t supported yet, please consider doing so. Every contribution brings us closer to making this dream a reality.

Together, we can make a difference!

Dear Dreamers,

WE REACHED OUR FIRST FUNDRAISING GOAL to bring hope and understanding to the Middle East!!!!

Thankyou for supporting "Shalom Salam" which means "peace" in Hebrew and Arabic. https://gofund.me/34abd6081

This super meaningful film through dynamic characters and powerful storytelling seeks to bridge divides and show that what unites us is far greater than what divides us.

If you can find it in your heart to support "Shalom Salam" this Thanksgiving Holiday and be part of a film that really matters, Bayou Bennett and i would be overjoyed for you to be our collaborators in peace.

Together, we can make a difference!
