Shireen of Al-Walaja: Film screening followed by Q&A

We are going to kick off the second semester with a very interesting event:

Film screening followed by a Q&A with Daz Chandler, director of the film.

All welcome, but there is a limited number seats avaible, so please reserve the tickets, which are free :).

There will also be a stall providing the sale of Palestinian goods and you will also be able to write a postcard for another female Palestinian activist, Ahed Tamimi, which is currently held in Ofer Israeli military prison.

About the film and Daz Chandler:
‘Shireen of al-Walaja’ is a multi-award winning documentary examining the philosophical and psychological drivers behind tireless resistance and exploring the crucial role Palestinian women play in the daily struggle to defend their communities and their land against ongoing dispossession.

Daz is an Australian-born filmmaker and video artist with a background in broadcast journalism and presenting for television and radio. Her work has screened at international film festivals throughout Europe, the United States and Australia and shown in galleries in Sydney, Newcastle, New York, Ramallah & Istanbul. Daz’s main interest lies in material that challenges preconceived sociocultural & political notions and ideas and creates instances of social engagement, or points of connection between unlikely parties. She also enjoys developing projects that indulge her dark sense of humor and flirt with the surreal and unexpected.
