Knowledge is the Beginning
World-renowned conductor Daniel Barenboim and late Palestinian scholar
Edward Said generated controversy and admiration with the founding of
their West-Eastern Divan Orchestra in 1999. The documentary follows
their unique musical collaboration, dedicated to furthering the cause
of peaceful coexistence in the Middle East, bringing together young
musicians from both sides of the divide: Syrians, Jordanians, Egyptians,
Palestinians and Israelis.
