Join us for the first evening of the People Watching People: Movie Nights.
The purpose of these movie nights is to screen films made by and about indigenous people from all over the world. And to bring awareness to different cultures that share paths of liberation. No one is free, until we are all free.
There will be coffee and tea available on site for a small price (cash only). But please feel free to bring your own snacks and drinks.
Screening:
“Tale of the Three Jewels”
Directed and written by: Michel Khleifi
Drama, 1h 52m
Description below from palestinefilminstitute.org
Yussef is a twelve-year old Palestinian child of the First Intifada. With his father in prison and his brother a fugitive from the Israeli army, he lives alone with his mother and sister. Though his life is marked by violence, he lives in his imagination, often escaping from the refugee-camp into the Gaza countryside. While hunting for birds one day, Yussef meets Aida, a young girl who poses a daunting challenge, leading him into a perilous adventure. This lyrical and moving work was shot in the early months of 1994, while Gaza remained under Israeli military occupation, and was the first feature film ever to be shot entirely in the Gaza Strip.🍉
