Balata Refugee Camp is one of the most hard-hit communities in Palestine’s West Bank. The over 30,000 residents, refugees of the 1948 Nakba, live in a heavily militarized zone where tear gas, gunshots, and military searches are a part of everyday life. Join us to see these remarkable films – made in Balata Camp by young Palestinians, members of the Balata Film Collective!
In cooperation with Al Jisser Group and New Jersey Solidarity – Activists for the Liberation of Palestine, Al-Awda NY will be bringing 3 members of the Balata Film Collective to The Bridge! Please join us on May 3rd to view several of their short films and help us raise funds to cover their travel expenses for their U.S. tour.
