Jenin, Jenin (Falastin Frames)

Name: Jenin, Jenin (Falastin Frames)
Genre: Documentary
Duration: 54 min

<b>This screening will be followed by a post-screening Q&A with Mariam Barghouti via Zoom.</b> ‘Where is God?’ an elderly man desperately wonders when surveying the debris in the Palestinian refugee camp Jenin. The film includes testimony from Jenin residents after the zionist occupation’s Defensive Wall operation, during which the city and camp were the scenes of fierce fighting. The operation ended with Jenin flattened and scores of Palestinians killed. Bitterness and grief are the prevailing feelings among the majority of the population. A little girl, who does not seem to be much older than twelve, tells her story but knows no fear. The ongoing violence in her day-to-day life only nourishes her feelings of resistance and determination. Banned in “Israel”, this film is dedicated to Iyad Samoudi, the producer of the film, who returned home to Yamun after the shooting of the film was completed. On June 23, as Israeli forces besieged Yamun, Samoudi was shot and killed as he was leaving a military-closed area with three friends. Mariam Barghouti is a journalist, writer, and researcher based in Ramallah, occupied Palestine. She has been covering the latest and ongoing aggressions on Jenin.DocumentaryPT54MN/C 15
