Insurgent Transmissions is a film series highlighting the varied Palestinian experience. Made by contemporary Palestinian makers, the films depict the many ways that Palestinians resist occupation in their daily lives and filmmaking practices. Beginning with Annemarie Jacir’s touching family drama, Wajib, the programming will unfold as a series of transmissions: Jacir chooses the second film, and each subsequent filmmaker will select the next film in the series. The films in Insurgent Transmissions highlight the works of contemporary Palestinian filmmakers, amplifying their voices through their films and the films they see as most urgent in this moment of cultural erasure and genocide.
This monthly series is presented by Mizna monthly at Bryant Lake Bowl. Ticket fees go towards supporting the featured Palestinian filmmakers. Online tickets are $10, tickets at the door are sliding scale $5–15. Additional opportunities to support urgent grassroots fundraisers in Gaza will be available at the screening.
ACCESSIBILITY: To make these events accessible, masks are STRONGLY ENCOURAGED. Unfortunately we cannot require masks because Bryant Lake Bowl serves food and drinks inside the screening space. Films will be in Arabic with English subtitles.
