A ZOOM DISCUSSION OF THE LEMON TREE. Salma, a Palestinian widow, tends her family’s West Bank lemon grove, when the Israeli Defense Minister and his wife (Mira) move next door and demand the trees be uprooted. The defense minister’s wife, Mira, sympathizes with Salma and gently resists the security apparatus. Exasperated by the military’s overreaction to the grove, Mira gives a newspaper interview that complicates her husband’s life. Two women must find justice in a culturally divided country.
