Wednesday, November 1 through Thursday, November 30
At the Arab Film and Media Institute (AFMI) we seek to continually change the narrative, share our stories, and foster understanding of our common humanity through art and storytelling. In this dire time, we want to share a selection of films that showcase the history, culture and people of Palestine.
Our hope is that this free program, entitled PALESTINIAN VOICES, can be a resource to provide insight into the current situation unfolding in Gaza and the people being affected.
PALESTINIAN VOICES will run through the entire month of November. You can watch most of the films in this series online and from anywhere in the world. A few titles are limited to viewers in the United States and some films will also screen in person in select cities.
Additionally, we have joined a global effort organized by Film Lab Palestine to present in-person screenings of an Arab Film Festival favorite, Gaza Surf Club on November 2, 8pm local time (NYC, SF, Dearborn). Check the link below for listings near you.
