"No Other Land" documentary film

POSTPONED TO FEBRUARY 28--ALL ISSUED TICKETS WILL BE HONORED If you can no longer attend, please write tickets@duke.edu to release your ticket. Basel Adra, a Palestinian activist from Masafer Yatta in the West Bank, has been fighting the mass expulsion by Israel's occupation since childhood. He documents the slow-motion eradication of the villages in his home region, where soldiers deployed by the Israeli government are gradually demolishing houses and driving out their residents. Eventually, he meets Yuval, an Israeli journalist, who supports him in his efforts. An unlikely alliance develops. However, the relationship between the two is strained by the enormous inequality between them: Basel lives under military occupation, while Yuval lives without restrictions. A Palestinian-Israeli collective made this Academy Award-nominated film, an act of creative resistance on the path to greater justice. There will be a post-screening panel with Palestinian filmmaker Hareth Yousef and Prof. Rebecca Stein. The screening is free but registration is required. The link is under MORE EVENT INFORMATION and will be live after 11 am on Wednesday, February 26).
