Hi gang it's Calvin! Please 'comment!' I'd love to hear your thoughts. (And let's YouTube know this is something to show others) I'll read every one :) I quit my day-job for this, and it's entirely self-funded (on credit cards lol). Support my work here: http://www.PayPal.me/calvinwayman/11.11 Either way, thank you so much for watching! :) - Hearts Unknown is an unscripted journey to finding unfiltered humanity on both sides of the Israel-Palestine divide. I traveled to one of the most polarized places on earth—not with a script, not with a side, but with a question: What’s it like to actually meet the people behind the headlines? This documentary captures raw, unfiltered moments with real people, each with stories that rarely make the news. I didn’t go looking for answers. I went looking for hearts. In a world increasingly divided, this is a story about finding what connects us. No crew. No agenda. Just curiosity. If this resonates with you, please share it. That’s how we grow this kind of conversation. - CHAPTERS: THE MISSION 00:00:00 Will I regret this? 🫣 00:01:16 Objectives for going 🎯 00:02:16 Wait—44 siblings?!
