This year, we’re screening partner for @blackstarfest Philly premier of the film “All that’s left of you” by Palestinian director Cherien Dabis.

After a Palestinian teen gets swept up into a West Bank protest, his mother recounts the family story of hope, courage and relentless struggle that led to this fateful moment.

📍 Where: Suzanne Robert’s Theater, 480 S Broad St, Philadelphia, PA 19146

⏰ When: August 1, 5:30PM

On May 20, 2024, @blackstarfest joined the growing list of cultural institutions committing themselves to the Palestinian Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel.

“BlackStar remains in solidarity with the Palestinian people, their ongoing resistance to genocide and settler colonialism, and the global call for an immediate, sustained ceasefire.

BlackStar is committed to the Palestinian Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI), put forth by the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement, and will continue the following practices as an organization:

🇵🇸 To support Palestinian filmmakers and visual artists whose work speaks against Israeli occupation, and to never require them to partner with Israeli counterparts as an explicit or implicit condition for such support.

🇵🇸 To refrain from participating in any project that seeks to “normalize” the Israeli occupation of Palestine and/or dehumanization of Palestinians.

🇵🇸 To abstain from collaborating with Israeli cultural and academic organizations that help maintain the Israeli occupation of Palestine.

🇵🇸 To abstain from collaborating with any organizations that receive funding from the state of Israel.“

We are proud to be co-presenting this screening and encourage all cultural institutions to join the boycott. As G@z@ surpasses cruel levels of starvation and violence by the Zionist regime, the need for every sector of society to mobilize is crucial now more than ever.

Discounted tickets are available for those with ACCESS cards, visit Home - BlackStar for more info and to buy your tickets.
