FILM | Witness Palestine Film Series

by

The Witness Palestine Film Series is an annual event which utilizes the medium of cinema to shed a light on an underrepresented point of view in the Middle East conflict: that of the Palestinian people. Presenting a collection of documentary and narrative films that focus on the issue of human rights, the event seeks to help audiences gain an appreciation and understanding of the Palestinian culture. Three films still remain in the series: "Voices Across the Divide" on Sunday, November 23, at 2 p.m. along with a double feature on Monday, November 24, which pairs the documentaries "Stone Cold Justice" and "From al-Araqib to Susiya" starting at 6:45 p.m. Each film will be followed by a panel discussion featuring a host of filmmakers and human rights advocates, on hand to lend their knowledge and expertise to the dialogue. Screenings will be held at The Little Theatre and tickets are available for $10 at the box office. Visit witnesspalestinerochester.org for more information.
