Unexpected Peace

2024 • 1h 35m • Documentary

Nonviolence in a polarized world.

Unexpected Peace follows social anthropologist Jonathan Bornman as he explores three stories: the Amish school shooting in Nickle Mines, PA; the murders of Murid (Sufi Muslim) migrants from Senegal in Harlem, New York; and Muslim-Christian conflict in Solo, Indonesia. In each case, communities responded to horrific acts of violence with forgiveness and actions of nonviolence.
