The 2023 Palestinian Film Festival Australia has been postponed, and two documentaries from previous years have been made free to stream.

From their website:

The continuing crisis in Occupied Palestine is heartbreaking. Our thoughts, prayers and love are with the innocent and vulnerable people caught up in this latest war. This is not the time to hold a film festival. It is time to mourn the dead, pay our respects to those suffering and work together to bring an immediate end to the ongoing atrocities against innocent civilians. It is for these reasons, we have decided to postpone the 2023 Palestinian Film Festival Australia.

In an effort to promote an increased understanding of what is happening in Occupied Palestine, the Palestinian Film Festival Australia is making two documentaries, 1948: Creation & Catastrophe and Gaza, screened at previous Palestinian film festivals freely available for all Australians to see.

1948: Creation and Catastrophe by Andy Trimlett and Ahlam Muhtaseb.

Through moving personal recollections of both Palestinians and Israelis, 1948: Creation and Catastrophe reveals the shocking events of the most pivotal year in the most controversial conflict in the world.

Gaza by Garry Keane and Andrew McConnell.

A portrait of a people attempting to lead meaningful lives against the rubble of perennial conflict and going beyond the reach of television news reports to reveal a world rich with eloquent and resilient characters.

    Please could we just remember that this is a bargains website. Can we keep the armchair politics out of it?

      How many other film festivals are giving out free movies?

    • An152 on 18/10/2023 - 11:22

      Agreed

      Unfortunately, the politics is right there in the first sentence quoted from the website above. Rather than take the opportunity to empathise with suffering, they deny the existence of Israel. Not a good start. Perhaps those comments could be deleted?

      • wormarts on 18/10/2023 - 12:15
        +54

        Where does it deny the exist of Israel?

        Are you saying that because of the reference to “occupied” Palestine? You realise that Israel has been building settlements on land that was not theirs, in contravention of international law. So it’s not a false statement.

        And even then, it’s not denying the existence of Israel. I’m not sure what you’re on about.

        • whyisave on 18/10/2023 - 13:02

          building settlements

          I don't think people got to see the videos,
          where houses are demolished at 4am
          or where local councils just re-zone houses
          and claim it's "theirs" now,
          or when people just walk into a backyard
          and say "excuse me, can you leave now?"
          (and then the military moves in, and supports the trespasser).

          If the Australian population were all ready to give indigenous recognition,
          then maybe there are also people indigenous on all lands around the world …
          even "that" strip of land , … and they also want recognition and their homes back.

              @wormarts: I'm shocked, shocked, that a disagreement on Palestine could get somebody so aggressive and hysterical :-)

                @bargaino: It’s not a disagreement. You actually made something up, and then tried to defend your position when called out on it.

                Your failure to acknowledge that makes it even worse.

                  @wormarts: You are choosing to not read the dog-whistle. And you choose to respond with ad homenim insult and obscenity, instead of rational debate. Show some respect for yourself at least, if you cannot find it for others.

                  What exactly was your interpretation of the wording then?

      • Plimsol on 18/10/2023 - 13:06
        +25

        The UN and the International Court of Justice (amongst others) use the term “the Occupied Palestinian Territory”, the government of Israel uses the term “disputed territories”. Both of these terms refer to the West Bank (including East Jerusalem), neither terms deny the existence of Israel.

        • bargaino on 18/10/2023 - 14:27

          Totally agreed. But read the quote again. "The continuing crisis in Occupied Palestine is heartbreaking."

          So only Gaza is heartbreaking? There is no crisis in Israel, no thousands murdered? or is that all part of "Occupied Palestine"? No acknowledgement?
          The quote is highly partisan, to say the least.

          the movies look good, BTW!

                  deemed to be an enemy of their 'prophet'

                  For your ignorant mind, Christians and Jews are respected as "People of the Book" in Islam (the Abrahamic religions).

        The demographic data just doesn't support your genocide claim at all. There are over 5 million Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank, and another 2 million Israeli Arab citizens. And the number keeps growing every year. Numbers don't lie in this case.
