Documentary | On My Land

Sunday 22nd December, 2024

 



Synopsis: On My Land is a cinematic testament to the Palestinian struggle, as seen through the eyes of filmmaker Mohamad Zwhara. This deeply personal documentary follows Mohamad's life from a young boy growing up in a farming family to a seasoned activist and filmmaker. The film weaves together stories of his family’s deep-rooted connection to the land, his early experiences in nonviolent resistance, and his journey as a visual storyteller. Through his lens, we witness the profound significance of the land to Palestinians, and the resilience of a people determined to defend their homeland.

The screening will begin at 7pm and will be followed by a Q & A with film maker Mohamad Zwhara. We encourage you to join us in the Rockfield Cafe from 6pm for company, discussion, and a warm drink.


All funds raised will go towards the projects run by the Al-Shmoh Cultural Centre. The centre serves 10 Palestinian villages by providing educational resources, medical services and projects preserving the cultural identity of Palestinians.
