Join us for a diverse and thought-provoking programme of 9 short films by both young and established Palestinian filmmakers. The first part of the programme reflects directly on the events of the Nakba (the 1948 Catastrophe) and the dream of return through animation, oral testimony and digital technology. The second part explores contemporary experiences, through traditional documentary, docu-drama and the film essay.

The programme is curated by Creative Interruptions, an Arts and Humanities Research Council Project that aims to explore the way in which disenfranchised communities use the arts to have their voice heard.

The programme will be preceded by new animated short film Sawt (Sound) by Kassem Hawal

Followed by a panel discussion with Dr. Anandi Ramamurthy, Kassem Hawal, Razan Madhoon, and Jamal Awar
