Nikki Scoggins, works with Daniel and I. She and her crew are a part of a film project that sounds awesome... here it is.

Film Synopsis: God Went Surfing with the Devil

The Middle East. A region seized by war, terror, and hatred. Israel and Gaza have seen some of the worst: fifty years of retaliatory strikes, with no end in sight. Yet despite the rubble, the sniper killings, the mortar fire, the jihadist propaganda, guys are surfing. "We go to the beach to forget about the suffering," says twenty-year-old Gaza resident Mohammed Juda.

God Went Surfing With the Devil will hear from Palestinians like Mohammed A'lwan about what it's like to surf in a war zone. It will explore 16 year-old Omer Levin's pursuit of sponsorship amidst the prospect of conscription. It will document life with Abdulla, an Arab-Israeli surfer who's been shunned by fellow Arabs and attacked by Jewish settlers. It will accompany American Matt Olsen's attempts to open Gaza's first surf camp. It will visit with surfers, soldiers, militants and politicians.

It will chronicle the lives of these incredible young men, Israeli and Palestinian, who have put down their guns and picked up surfboards, reaching out to each other with hope and love in their hearts.
