There is Another Way chronicles the experiences of Combatants for Peace, a group of Israeli ex-soldiers and Palestinian former fighters who reject hatred in favour of peace. They are convinced that reconciliation is not only possible but essential. After the events of 7 October and the war in Gaza, this documentary looks into the personal and collective struggles of those who believe violence can never solve the conflict. Yet before any other considerations, one fundamental question must be answered: is this vision truly realistic?
