Check out this online program of four exception short films from our program:

Fragmented - Director: Tanya Marar, Balolas Carvalho

After 25 days of genocide, a pioneering Gazan journalist and former political prisoner flees to Malta, honoring his daughter’s plea for a future together. Fragmented captures memories of exile, the human cost of occupation, and an unbroken spirit resisting oppression—driven by belonging, memory, and the pursuit of justice in Palestine.

Blood Like Water - Director: Dima Hamdan

Shadi embarks on a secret adventure, and accidentally drags his family into a trap where they only have two choices; either collaborate with the Israeli occupation, or be shamed and humiliated by their own people.

Visiting the Dead - Director: Elias Issa Halabi

Visiting the Dead follows Palestinian landowners on their annual visits to lands isolated behind the Israeli separation wall near Jabal Abu Ghneim (now Har Homa settlement). Through personal stories and quiet moments of return, the film reflects on dispossession, ecological loss, and the enduring connection to land under settler colonialism. Produced as part of the Academy of Finland-funded project Present-futures in/of Palestine, it offers a poignant look at everyday resistance and the politics of presence.

$17.74 - Director: Justin Mashouf

A young filmmaker follows the transformative journey of a former gang member incarcerated since the 80s, when an act of compassion for the people of Gaza amidst prison walls sparks a viral movement of solidarity and hope.

Later Event: September 24
Opening Night: Once Upon a Time in Gaza
