01/21 – 6 p.m. Animated film “Animated Palestine”: Screenings and discussion
Animated Palestine is a collective of Palestinian and international animation directors. Our films explore various aspects of Palestinian life under occupation. Faced with genocide, we felt the need to come together as an artistic community to support each other, strengthen ties and spread stories of Palestine: stories of pain, resistance and hope, as an antidote to death and destruction.
Screenings: Khaled Jarada, Sherin Abdel Karim, Amal Al-Nakhala, Ahmad Saleh, Samira Badran, Jana Kattan, Tariq Rimawi, Basel Nasr, Dana Durr, Rami Abbas, Msallam Hdaib, Amer Shomali, Faiza Afifi, Dia’Azzeh, Abod Naser, Mats Grorud, Haneen Karaz, NourAbdel Jawad, Shorouq Darwish and Rasmi Damo, May Odeh
