In solidarity with Palestine, we are hosting ‘Films from Palestine: Solidarity Screening’ a watch-along of films by Palestinian filmmakers.
Join us at The NewBridge Project cinema room for three Solidarity screenings of films made by Palestinian filmmakers. Programmed as an online screening and fundraiser in the wake of escalating violence and devastation in Palestine and the Middle East, this collection of films explore all the ways occupation stifles life and the many more ways that Palestinians find to resist and persist.
In this moment, join us in coming together to stand in solidarity, learn with each other and support Medical Aid Palestine. Everyone is welcome.
Screenings are not ticketed, but we do encourage attendees to support by donating to Medical Aid Palestine.
Screening Schedule:
Monday 13 November: 6pm – 8.15pm
Tuesday 14 November: 6pm – 8pm
Monday 20 November: 11am – 1pm and 2pm – 3.30pm (alongside our regular coffee morning)

We recognise that with no ceasefire in Gaza, fundraising drives for medical aid are not the solution. We add our voice to those calling for a ceasefire.
