SUMMARY:No Other Land (15)
DESCRIPTION:Come and see this year’s Oscar winning documentary film…\nNo Other Land is a multi-award winning documentary film made by a Palestinian-Israeli collective of four activists, in what they describe as an act of resistance on the path to justice during the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. The film was recorded between 2019 and 2023 and shows the destruction of a Palestinian community in the occupied West Bank which had been resisting forced displacement following the declaration of an Israeli “firing zone” on their land.\nBasel Adra, a young Palestinian activist from Masafer Yatta, has been fighting his community’s mass expulsion by the Israeli occupation since childhood. Basel documents the gradual erasure of Masafer Yatta, as soldiers destroy the homes of families – the largest single act of forced transfer ever carried out in the occupied West Bank. He crosses paths with Yuval, an Israeli journalist who joins his struggle, and for over half a decade they fight against the expulsion while growing closer. Their complex bond is haunted by the extreme inequality between them: Basel, living under a brutal military occupation, and Yuval, unrestricted and free.\nA co-production between Palestine and Norway, the film was selected for the Panorama section at the 74th Berlin International Film Festival, where it had its world premiere on 16 February 2024, winning the Panorama Audience Award for Best Documentary Film and the Berlinale Documentary Film Award. The film won Best Documentary Feature Film at the 97th Academy Awards.\n★★★★★ “Powerful Israel-Palestine documentary is essential viewing” – The Guardian\nOccupied Palestinian Territory/Norway 2024  92mins   Dirs: Basel Adra, Hamdan Ballal, Yuval Abraham & Rachel Szor\n\nWednesday 16th April\nCinema located on first floor – regrettably no disabled access\nLicensed bar, hot drinks available from 7pm\nPalestinian products (including Zaytoun olive oil) will be available for sale from 7pm\nThere is no admission charge – just come along – but donations will be gratefully received\nProceeds to Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP)\nDoors: 7:00pm\nFilm starts: 7:45pm\n\n
