SUMMARY:SIFF: The Mother of All Lies [Morocco]
DESCRIPTION:How do you reconstruct the past when all traces of that past have been erased? This is the dilemma that confronts filmmaker Asmae El Moudir\, in terms of both her personal history and the history of her country. In terms of her personal history\, her tyrannical grandmother has forbidden the taking of photographs in the family\, seemingly as part of a larger obfuscation of the past. In the absence of photographs\, El Moudir enlists her father\, a successful builder\, to help her construct an elaborate diorama of the street where the family lived during her childhood\, in the Sebata district of Casablanca. She populates the diorama with miniature clay figurines of her family\, friends\, and neighbors. Their real-life counterparts are then invited to revisit their memories of that time and place—in particular the 1981 Casablanca Bread Riots\, protests over the price of bread that were brutally suppressed by the police and military. On El Moudir’s street alone\, a girl her age named Fatima was killed in the street; neighbors Saïd and Abdallah were seized and tortured. These events have been suppressed in El Moudir’s family history\, as well as in the national history. But El Moudir recreates them\, retrieving what might otherwise be lost; bringing family secrets and memories to light\, and achieving some measure of justice\, if only in miniature. \n

SUMMARY:Jerusalem Story: Virtual Event
DESCRIPTION:Jerusalem Story tells the story of a unique city through a new lens—that of the city’s large and diverse indigenous Palestinian community. \nThis community has deep historic roots in Jerusalem and holds the strongest attachment to and love for their city. Yet\, they have been subjected to unrelenting efforts to erase their presence in\, and potential claim to\, the city—past\, present\, and future—in the service of cementing Israel’s imperative of claiming sole sovereignty in perpetuity over a “united Jewish Jerusalem.” Against this ongoing effort to erase the Palestinian cultural and community history as well as severing connection to place\, Jerusalem Story is reasserting the Palestinian presence. \nSPEAKERS: \nKate Rouhana \nFounding Director\, Jerusalem Story \nKate Rouhana is a writer\, editor\, and researcher.She has lived and worked as a journalist and researcher in Jerusalem and elsewhere in Palestine several times throughout her life. She holds an MA in Middle Eastern Studies and a BA in International Relations\, both from Harvard University. \nAmina Abdulhaq \nResearcher/Writer\, Jerusalem Story \nAmina Abdulhaq is a human rights lawyer and a researcher. Her family has deep historic roots in Jerusalem. Her work focuses on Jerusalem\, women\, and gender. Amina is fully devoted to raising all oppressed people’s voices\, inclusively embracing diversities and uniqueness. \nArda Aghazarian \nWriter\, Jerusalem Story \nArda Aghazarian is a communications consultant with ample experience in creative and professional writing and has also worked in audiovisual production—including film and radio.

SUMMARY:Eyewitness Palestine: Live from Lyd Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Join Eyewitness Palestine on Wednesday\, March 27th at 12PM ET for our Live from Lyd webinar\, featuring a special virtual delegation led by Tamer Nafar\, who will take us around Lyd on a custom tour of the city. Lyd\, like many Palestinian cities\, is an ancient city that’s been home to multiple civilizations over its 5\,000-year history. It was the site of one of the most grueling massacres of the Nakba and remains haunted by the injustices brought on to it. Today\, the community of Lyd–one of the few cities with an integrated Palestinian and Israeli Jewish population–is marred by addiction and gun violence. We’ll hear from Lyd residents about the resilience and struggles they face in the community.

SUMMARY:Online Film Salon Discussion: Films on "Hydropolitics"
DESCRIPTION:Register: Tinyurl.com/VFHL-March2024Watch the films at your convenience! \nJoin the panel at 12pm! \n\nwww.voicesfromtheholyland.org/salonrecordings  \n\nInvitation to an Online Film Salon\nSunday March 17\, 2024\n\nControlling the supply\, distribution\, and cost of water to an occupied people is apartheid in action. Israel\, through legal and illegal means\, maintains near-complete control over the region’s freshwater aquifers\, severely restricting Palestinians’ abilities to drill wells\, install pumps\, build water tanks\, or even collect rainwater. The average Israeli consumes over 3 times the water used by Palestinian on the water grid in the West Bank (9 times the water used by those off the grid). West Bank Palestinians pay 1/3 or more of their income to Israeli companies for drinking water. Meanwhile\, Gazans are now consuming less than 3 liters per day—hardly enough for survival. \nVFHL offers three short videos describing the “hydropolitics” and structural water apartheid in the Holy Land. Our panel discussion will explore designed inequalities in water distribution; the physical\, economic and regulatory controls; as well as the ecological problems of pollution and over-extraction \nWatch the videos for free at your convenience; Join the Q&A Discussion with: \nNancy Murray–Co-founder of Alliance for Water Justice in Palestine\nMazin Qumsiyeh–Director of the Palestine Institute for Biodiversity and Sustainability\nEyal Hareuveni–Author\, Parched: Israel’s Policy of Water Deprivation in the West Bank\nJeff Halper (Moderator) – Israeli-American anthropologist\, author\, lecturer\, and political activist; founder of Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD) \nYou must register to join the discussion & receive access to the film: Tinyurl.com/VFHL-March2024\nWatch the Trailer: Tinyurl.com/VFHL-March2024Trailer \nHow this will work: \n1 – Register here for the Voices from the Holy Land Online Film Salon: \nTinyurl.com/VFHL-March2024 \n2 – Once you register\, you will get a confirmation email from Zoom with a link to the meeting and a link with to watch the film.  (Save this confirmation letter as the meeting link is unique to your email and you must have this to participate.) \n3 – Watch the film at your convenience before the event.  Then join us with your thoughts and questions for our speakers at the Q&A Discussion on Sunday March 17\, 2024 at 3 pm ET/ 12 noon PT.   \nPlease share this announcement with your friends\, family\, and community.  Download the event flyer and post it to your social media. \nDownload the event flyer here.
