Against all odds, he turns his tragedy into a global campaign to eradicate hate, delivering his message in English, Arabic and Hebrew. He is quoted by former US president Barack Obama and nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. But Dr. Abuelaish remains haunted by grief, and convinced that to honour his daughters, he must hold the Israeli government accountable for the unprovoked attack that decimated his family. 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.<br /><br />https://www.filmoptioninternational.com/i-shall-not-hate<br /><br />https://www.imdb.com/title/tt31889233
