Must-See Documentary!
May 02, 2025
The Oscar-winning documentary, “No Other Land” is about a young Palestinian activist from Masafer Yatta, who is joined by an Israeli journalist to document his community’s resilience and resistance to Israeli efforts to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from the area. The film touched every person in attendance, and it’s been requested to show again.
Due to its controversial subject matter, the film has struggled to find a U.S. distributor. But for a limited time, the filmmakers are making it available in the United States as a fundraiser, made possible by the longstanding partnership between residents of Masafer Yatta and the Center for Jewish Nonviolence. Viewers in North America have until May 8, 2025 to rent and watch the film from home or organize a community event.
CSA has opted to support this film and offer it as a community event again on Tuesday, May 6 at 5:30 pm. This will be hybrid, meaning you can join in person or via Zoom. There is no cost to attend, but registration is required either way with this form: https://forms.gle/CmXZAZuqEAMCFchc6
This may be your last chance to see this film in the United States. Please attend, bring a friend, and share this invitation widely. We hope to see you there!!
