A Tree of Life: The Pittsburgh Synagogue Shooting

On Saturday, October 27th, 2018, a white supremacist, further radicalized by the political climate at the time, walked into the Tree of Life Synagogue with four semi-automatic assault weapons, shouting "all Jews must die." He murdered eleven congregants, ranging in age from 54 to 97, as they prayed. A TREE OF LIFE creates a deeply personal portrait of the survivors, victims, and the victims' family members of the Pittsburgh Synagogue attack, and brings into sharp focus the hate-based crisis that threatens our collective safety and democracy itself.
