  • Rachel: An American Conscience

Yahya Barakat, who teaches TV production, cinematography, Rachel: An American Conscienceand filmmaking at al-Quds University, told the Washington Report that he began work on the documentary the instant he learned that Corrie had been crushed to death by an Israeli-driven Caterpillar bulldozer.

The film opens with grim images of dinasaur-like Caterpillar bulldozers turning urban Rafah into a garbage pile of destroyed buildings. It continues with interviews of Rachel's fellow International Solidarity Movement volunteers, and concludes with comments from her parents.
