Documentary - Northern California Premiere!Beyond Belief Starring: Susan Retik, Patti Quigley
Two women on a heroic mission to overcome grief and loss.
Susan Retik and Patti Quigley are two ordinary soccer moms living in the suburbs of Boston. Then tragedy strikes. As they cope with loss and struggle to raise their families as single mothers, they dedicate themselves to empowering Afghan widows whose lives have been ravaged by decades of war, poverty and oppression - factors they consider to be the root causes of terrorism. As Susan and Patti make the courageous journey from their comfortable neighborhood to desperate Afghan villages, they discover a powerful bond with each other, and an unlikely kinship with widows halfway around the world. Theirs is a journey of personal strength and international reconciliation, and a testament to the vision that peace can be forged, one woman at a time.
