In this episode of TSE's series Sacred Steps, we meet Sameer. Around his left wrist, he wears three strands of olive pits. He carved them into beads when he was a teenager, in prison, put there for throwing stones at Israeli soldiers. Since then, he's had a weak stomach and more sleepless nights than he can count. When he can't sleep, he plays one song to help him relax. It's a melody that inexplicably becomes a touchstone for peace.
