re:assemblage collective

― wave~form~projects + re:assemblage collective present:

First in a series of film screenings affirming Palestinian people’s sumud ( صمود ṣumūd) meaning "steadfastness" - a Palestinian cultural value, ideological theme and political strategy) and resilience, with an opportunity for discussions on the impacts of the ongoing genocide in Gaza and continuous repression across historic Palestine. Our two collectives are coming together to co-present screenings of current and historical films under the banner ‘from the river to the sea’, in line with other interconnected global initiatives centering Palestinian voices in cinema. The series foregrounds political education through film, concurrent with a call to support BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) for individuals and institutions across Turtle Island.

A Night at Home

Directed by Rehab Nazzal
Palestine/Canada · 2012 · 4'00

A Night at Home was shot in Palestine in 2006 during a night invasion to my hometown near Jenin by the Israeli occupation forces. My mom, my son and I woke up to the sound of shooting. In the dark, trapped in our beds, we listened…this video presents glimpses of the violence civilians have to endure under military power.
