A screening in support of "Palestine Cinema Days" Festival, co-hosted with Filmlab Palestine.
Join us Sunday, November 2 at 1PM for a screening of Elia Suleiman’s Divine Intervention (2002). This event is co-hosted with Filmlab Palestine and is a part of the annual Palestine Cinema Days Festival.
Film Description: In Nazareth, absurd daily life hides deep tension. E.S. navigates between caring for his ailing father and a relationship with a woman from Ramallah, separated by an Israeli checkpoint. Their love, confined to a deserted lot, struggles under occupation. Political reality invades their intimacy, sparking surreal fantasies where desire resists siege, yet reality’s grip proves unrelenting.
This screening is free of charge. Early arrival recommended, seats available until we reach capacity. Masks required. Light bites and refreshments will be provided. Click here to RSVP.
