You are warmly invited to a Palestinian film night. Our hopes for this night are to come together in solidarity for Palestine, add to our understanding of the Palestinian struggle for freedom, and to gain confidence in talking about the unfolding catastrophe within our communities. This will be taking place on the lands of the Awabakal and Worimi peoples whose strength and resistance to colonisation has always been and continues today.
The film we have chosen has been generously made available by the to promote understanding of what is happening in Occupied Palestine.Â
