TPFF 2022 has officially come to an end. A BIG thank you for making our 15th birthday a huge success– we couldn’t have done it without you. Together we: screened 22 films; put up a billboard; hosted the Weaving in Light art exhibition; launched Saeed Teebi’s book; learned how animation films are made with Ahmad Saleh; Nadia Shammas empowered youth to create their own comics; danced the night away with TootArd; enjoyed a delicious Palestinian brunch at Petra Restaurant; held a lively discussion on anti-Palestinian racism in the arts; and were joined by filmmakers for five post-screening Q&As.

Most importantly we created many wonderful memories together, we were the site of reunions among friends, we were inspired and awed by Palestinian art and artists, and for 5 glorious days TPFF was the gathering place for community and a space of solidarity for all who attended.

Thank you to our sponsor and donors for helping make our 15th TPFF vision a reality. Thank you for helping us promote Palestinian art and cinema locally and globally. If you’d like to become a TPFF sponsor and join us in celebrating Palestinian excellence please contact us.

A big thank you to our co-presenters and community partners for spreading the word to their communities all around the world!
