About this event
Join the Palestinian Youth Movement on Friday, February 7th, for a screening of Mohammad Bakri's film Jenin, Jenin, the first film in our February Film Series. In this film series, we will gather for a different screening every week in the month of February to watch and engage with films that speak to our struggle for liberation, and the current moment.
Jenin has been under targeted attack by the IOF and the PA since the beginning of the ceasefire in Gaza. In an attempt to quell its resistance and punish its people, Jenin and its refugee camp have been subjected to a massive offensive, known as “Operation Iron Wall,” involving air raids, drone bombings, and abductions. The targeting of historic strongholds of Palestinian resistance in the West Bank, such as Jenin, is nothing new.
Join us for our first screening of Jenin, Jenin—a film that presents firsthand accounts of the 2002 assault on Jenin, called “Operation Defensive Shield,” as well as its aftermath. The screening will be followed by an open discussion.
