A night of dialogue on resistance and human rights: Join us for an evening of powerful storytelling, critical discussion and reflection in community, as we screen the Oscar-winning, thought provoking documentary No Other Land (2024), directed by Basel Adra, Hamdan Ballal, Yuval Abraham, and Rachel Szor.
📍 Grand Teatret, May 22nd
🕕 Doors open at 18:00
🎟️ The event is free of charge – but spots will be limited. Sign up via the link above!
Set in a Palestinian village under Israeli occupation, No Other Land offers an intimate and urgent look into life under systemic displacement. The film has sparked global conversation – especially considering the ongoing crisis in Gaza – and we invite you to be part of that conversation here in Copenhagen.
Following the screening, a panel of voices with professional expertise and lived experience will dive into the broader Israel-Palestine conflict, with a special focus on displacement and the often-overlooked gendered dimensions of the conflict – how women and children are uniquely affected.
🎤 Panelists: Malene Sønderskov, Trine Pertou Mach, Fathi El Abed, Anne Hjul Lybke
