Another first for Bristol! This winter between 1st – 10th December, the Bristol Palestine Film Festival will be celebrating Palestinian film, arts and culture at multiple venues throughout the city. With screenings at Watershed, Arnolfini, the Cube, and Hamilton House, we will be inviting audiences to explore the multiple realities and identities of Palestinian people. On wednesday 9th November the full programme was published online at http://www.bristolpff.org.uk/. On 3rd December,after a tasting, facilitated by Zaytoun, we screen Jaffa – The Clockwork’s Orange presented by Dr Ghada Karmi – a leading Palestinian activist, writer and academic. She is co-director of the European Centre of Palestine Studies at the University of Exeter, and a patron of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign and a member of the Executive Committee of the Council for Arab-British Understanding. Her memoir, ‘In Search of Fatima’, was widely acclaimed, and her most recent book. ‘Married to another man: Israel’s dilemma in Palestine’, is an analysis of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict from the Palestinian point of view.Guests wishing to attend the film and talk following the reception are kindly invited to purchase tickets (which will shortly be available) from the Arnolfini box office.
