What drives a young Westerner to volunteer as a peace activist in the Middle East? Caiomhe Butterly is one of a growing number of volunteers who risk their own safety to intervene in the long-running and bloody conflict between Israel and Palestine.

This thought-provoking documentary follows Caiomhe’s day-to-day work and issues affecting life in the Middle East. Despite numerous threats, personal attacks and even a deportation, Butterly remains resilient in her commitment to promote peace within communities at risk.
