CAMERAS(Palestinian-Israeli-French Co-Production,
Directed by Emad Burnat and Guy Davidi, 90 minutes, Not Rated, Arabic and Hebrew
with English subtitles, Music by Le Trio
Joubran.)
The 2013
Oscar-nominated "Best Documentary Feature", 5 BROKEN
CAMERAS is a deeply personal, first-hand account of life and
non-violent resistance in Bil'in, a West Bank village surrounded by Israeli
settlements, whose very sustenance is threatened by the Israeli West Bank
Separation Wall.
Shot by
Palestinian farmer Emad Burnat, who bought his first camera in 2005 to record
the birth of his youngest son, Gibreel, the film was co-directed by Burnat and
Israeli filmmaker, Guy Davidi.
Structured in chapters around the destruction of each one of Burnat's cameras by Israeli soldiers, the film follows one family's evolution over five years of village upheaval as olive trees are bulldozed, protests intensify, and lives are lost. The film is a cinematic diary that provides us with an unparalleled record of Palestinian life under Israeli military occupation.
Doors open at 6:30p.m. for light refreshments.
