Daniel Barenboim established the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra with the late Palestinian writer Edward Said in order to bring together young musicians from across the political divide in the Middle East. Their hope was that music would heal and help to bring understanding and tolerance of different beliefs and cultures. The award-winning documentary describing this project from its beginning in 1999, Knowledge Is the Beginning, was produced and directed by Paul Smaczny.
