The story behind Stitching Palestine - Twelve Palestinian women talk of their life before the Diaspora, of their memories, of their lives and of their identity.

Their narratives are connected by the enduring thread of the ancient art of embroidery.

Twelve resilient, determined and articulate women from disparate walks of life: lawyers, artists, housewives, activists, architects, and politicians stitch together the story of their homeland, of their dispossession, and of their unwavering determination that justice will prevail.

Through their stories, the individual weaves into the collective, yet remaining distinctly personal. Twelve women, twelve life-spans and stories from Palestine; a land whose position was fixed on the map of the world, but is now embroidered on its face.

The film screening will be followed by discussions with the audience. Running Time 77 minutes, English with English subtitles as applicable.
