Join us on Monday January 27th for the No Other Land Documentary.

A young Palestinian activist named Basel Adra has been resisting the forced displacement of his people by Israel's military in Masafer Yatta, a region in the West Bank, since he was a child. He records the gradual destruction of his homeland, where Israeli soldiers are tearing down homes and evicting their inhabitants in order to create a military firing zone. He befriends Yuval, an Jewish Israeli journalist who helps him in his struggle. They form an unexpected bond, but their friendship is challenged by the huge gap between their living conditions: Basel faces constant oppression and violence, while Yuval enjoys freedom and security.

A Protected content film directed by Basel Adra, Hamdan Ballal, Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor in their directorial debut. The film was 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 ongoing conflict in the region.

A co-production between Palestine and Norway, the film was nominated at the 97th Academy Awards for the Best Documentary Feature Film.

For those interested we will meet at 20:00 at Al Vej Bicerin next to the cinema and otherwise at 20:45 in front of the Cinema Centrale.

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Alexandra and Desiree
