Knowledge Is the Beginning
Knowledge is the Beginning is the story of the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra, where young Arabs and Jews perform and live side by side. It is a film about what music can do; the way it can transcend cultural barriers, bring people together, defeat prejudice and overcome religious and political differences. It also demonstrates the problems that crop up occasionally and how music can help people from different points of view find common ground. For Daniel Barenboim, founder of the ensemble, the orchestra is a symbol for what could be achieved in the Middle East.

Good story, Not enough for a whole film
A Brilliant Conflict
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
