- In 2017 filmmaking sisters Georgia and Sophia Scott gained intimate access to the story of imprisoned Palestinian political leader Marwan Barghouthi. Working closely with Marwan's family in the occupied West Bank (Palestine), the Scott sisters spent over 3 years following the family as they struggled through Marwan's prisoner hunger strike. Brought on by harsh prison conditions and the de- sire to make a stand, the following months were an intense year that took its toll on Marwan's family and inner circle. The film follows painful prison visits by his family to see Marwan, only to be turned away at the last moment. As the hunger strike builds, we see in depth interviews from the people who know Marwan best, from Israeli political leaders to his lawyers, his sons and beloved wife Fadwa. Highly crafted, daring and humanist in its approach, Tomorrow's Freedom film builds a powerful picture of a man that might one day lead the Palestinian people. And poses the question; can peace between Israel and Palestine be reached with the right leaders? Is Marwan that leader? TOMORROW's FREEDOM takes you on a brutally honest and transformative journey into the heart of the Israel Palestine conflict, speaking to Palestinians and Israelis on both sides. Marwan Barghouthi is an elected member of parliament and played a crucial role supporting the Oslo Peace Accords in the 90's. In 2000 Marwan was a key figure in leading the second Intifada against the Israeli occupation. Two years into the Intifada, Marwan was arrested by Israel and accused of ordering terror attacks in Tel Aviv. After 1000 days of isolation and his court case, an Israeli civil- ian court convicted Marwan and sentenced him to 5 life sentences. Recent polls indicate that in the next Palestinian elections Barghouti could be elected as the President of Palestine - meaning Israel would be holding the country's president be- hind bars. The vehicle through which this story is told is the Barghouthi family. Over the past 4 years, we gained intimate access witnessing first hand the pressures that wife, Fadwa and their four children endure on a daily basis including prison visits and a 43 day long Hunger Strike led by Marwan from Solitary confinement. Fadwa is a powerful force for female empowerment and is a lawyer and member of the Fatah council. Fadwa has traveled the world campaigning for Marwan's release for over 2 decades. The film captures a new call for Barghouthi's freedom; by his family, human rights activists and key interviewees including Yossi Beilin (former Justice Minister of Israel, Lindsey Hilsum (International Editor Channel 4 news and the only Western journalist to have interviewed Marwan from inside prison), Hannan Ashrawi (PLO founder in Ramallah), Simon Foreman (international lawyer appointed by the Inter-Parliamentary Union to monitor Marwan's trial in Tel Aviv), Former President Jimmy Carter and Desmund Tutu.
