Movie: Lyd
2024-08-15 19:30 - 21:00 | Northwest Film Forum, 1515 12th Ave, 2, Seattle, WA, 98122, United States
Lyd is a feature-length, speculative documentary that follows the rise and fall of Lyd (alternatively Lod, as it is now called), a 5,000-year-old metropolis that was a bustling Palestinian town, until it was taken over by the state of Israel. As the film unfolds, residents create a tapestry of the Palestinian experience of this city and exemplify the trauma left by the 1948 massacre and expulsion. Vivid animations envision an alternate reality where the same people live free from the trauma of the past and the violence of the present. Using never-before-seen archival footage of Israeli soldiers who carried out the massacre and expulsion, the personified city explains that these events were so devastating that they fractured reality, and now there are two Lyds — one occupied and one free. As the film cuts between fantastical and documentary realities, it ultimately leaves the viewer questioning which future should prevail.
Lyd dares to ask the question: what would the city be like had the Israeli occupation of Lyd never happened?

Not Another Bomb: Rally
2024-08-18 12:00 - 14:00 | Cal Anderson Park, 1635 11th Ave., Seattle, WA, 98122, United States
Why is the current administration bankrolling the brutal murder of thousands of people alongside metric tons of CO2 emissions daily, while ignoring their constituents? Why does our government have trillions to send Israel weapons to bomb schools, while everyday Americans are left without adequate funding for housing, education or other basic needs?
Join us one day ahead of the Democratic National Convention to tell the Harris administration #NotAnotherBomb
It’s time to enact an arms embargo.
