Why

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. 

Gaza

"Garry Keane and Andrew McConnell.
A portrait of a people attempting to lead meaningful lives against the rubble of perennial conflict and going beyond the reach of television news reports to reveal a world rich with eloquent and resilient characters."

To get a sense of numbers we are taking registrations through Humanitix. (Link coming). These are free but if you would like you can make a donation. Any funds raised on the night will be donated to Australia Palestine Advocacy Network (APAN).
