We invite regional audiences to explore and celebrate through cinema the rich diversity of Palestinian life, culture, society, and politics.
This groundbreaking event aims to provide Philadelphians with an in-depth political and cultural context for issues that are often over-simplified in the media, and to promote films that open a space for dialogue and exchange about equality and justice.
At various venues throughout the city, this free festival will show feature-length dramas, documentaries, and short films, accompanied by discussions with filmmakers and scholars as well as performances.
