Awdah Hathaleen who helped make this documentary was murdered on July 29th by Zionist settler armed and protected by IOF..
An Israeli settler, who Donald Trump removed from US sanctions list in January, has killed a Palestinian journalist and community leader who helped make the Oscar-winning documentary 'No Other Land'.
A Palestinian activist, journalist and community leader has been shot and killed in front of a community centre in a village near Hebron, in occupied West Bank - a village which was documented in the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land.
This was the straw that broke the camel's back and had decide to display this movie on my PeerTube channel.
This, and also the fact that when checking on the internet where the movie, that won 2 distinguished awards in Berlin and LA, as best documentary movie was quasi not shown in any theater all over Europe.
In Paris, my home town, it has been displayed for a couple of weeks, in a 2 rooms theater of 60 seats.
It deserves to be advertised.
The LUMINOR, 20 rue du Temple, 75004 Paris.
NBC News reported that the film did not secure theatrical distribution in the United States due to political sensitivities around the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
However, the movie is available to view in select independent theaters in US and Europe.
Anytime a theater tries to show it, even in private events in universities, Zionist lobbying succeeds in cancelling it.
WELL, TRY AND CANCEL THIS !
The film, a joint Palestinian-Israeli production directed by Basel Adra, Hamdan Ballal, Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, chronicles the struggle by residents to stop the Israeli military from demolishing their villages in Masafer Yatta. It won Best Documentary at the Berlinale last year and at the Oscars this year.
Basel Adra and Yuval Abraham confirmed the tragic news, with Abraham sharing a video on X showing the Israeli settler identified as Yinon Levi breandishing a handgun and shooting.
Abraham described Awdah as “a remarkable activist who helped us film No Other Land in Masafer Yatta”, while Adra said on social media: “My dear friend Awdah was slaughtered this evening. He was standing in front of the community centre in his village when a settler fired a bullet that pierced his chest and took his life. This is how Israel erases us – one life at a time.”
Israel's military said an armed Israeli civilian opened fire at a group of Palestinians after they threw rocks. Israeli police responded to the incident, but no charges have been filed against Yinon Levi.
What is the film about?
The film was produced from 2019 to 2023 and comprises mostly personal camcorder footage filmed by Palestinian activist Basel Adra, 28, who documents the Israeli military’s destruction of his hometown, Masafer Yatta in a small, rugged region in the southern occupied West Bank.
The film highlights Israeli demolitions of homes in the village, which the Israeli military wants to turn into a military training zone. Its footage shows the Israeli military razing a school and filling water wells with cement, so residents cannot rebuild.
Adra made the film with Israeli journalist Yuval Abraham, who co-directed it along with Palestinian filmmaker Hamdan Ballal and Israeli filmmaker Rachel Szor.
During his Oscar acceptance speech on Sunday night in Los Angeles, Adra said his film “reflects the harsh reality we have been enduring for decades and still resist as we call on the world to take serious actions to stop the injustice and to stop the ethnic cleansing of Palestinian people”.
“About two months ago, I became a father, and my hope to my daughter is that she will not have to live the same life I’m living now.”
Abraham said in his speech: “When I look at Basel, I see my brother. But we are unequal. We live in a regime where I am free under civilian law and Basel is under military laws that destroy lives, that he cannot control,” he said.
The film was released months after deadly Hamas-led attacks in southern Israel on October 7, 2023, which triggered Israel’s war on Gaza.
