Philly Gaza Action Group presents a screening of:
"Handala"
A film named after the character created by the Palestinian refugee-artist Naji al-Ali. His name, "Handala," means bitterness.
A film about the paradox of tremendous hope in various forms of localized Palestinian and Israeli nonviolence, and at the same time, the devastating hopelessness of over 40 years of evermore violent occupation and ethnic cleansing in Palestine. It draws from material filmed in the occupied Palestinian Gaza Strip and West Bank, and Israel in the summer of 2007.
Monday, January 26th, 7pm at the A-Space
4722 Baltimore Ave.
director Adam Beach (recently returned from Palestine),
producer Peder Wiegner will be present to speak about their work.
The Rev. Sunny Hallanan, a long time peace activist concerning Middle East issues, will also be present to speak about the current situation in Gaza.
FREE and open to the public.
