Documentary Has World Premiere At State Theater in Traverse City

Posted: Updated:

Jacob Wheeler and Aaron Dennis created a documentary "The People and the Olive" about the story of the run across Palestine.

A group of American marathon runners ran 129 miles in five days across Palestine, as a project for the non profit organization "On the Ground."

That group is based out of Traverse City, and they focus on replanting uprooted olive trees.

The creators were happy to have their world premiere at the State Theater, in a town they say gave them a lot of support.
