Carolyn Talks 'Palestine / فلسطين 36,with Filmmaker Annemarie Jacir
•
In this episode of Carolyn Talks..., I speak with writer-director Annemarie Jacir about PALESTINE '36 / فلسطين 36, her feature film about the 1936 Palestinian uprising in the town of Al Basa against the threat of colonial violence by the growing Israeli settler population, and British and French imperialism. We spoke about the perseverance and dedication of the cast and crew to make the film amidst the ongoing genocide in Gaza and West Bank by Israeli forces, art as political resistance and catharsis, and her career as a filmmaker.
Co-produced and distributed by @watermelonpicturesco, #Palestine36 stars Hiam Habas, Kamel Al Basha, Yasmine Al Massri, Karim Daoud Anaya, Wardi Eilabouni, Liam Cunningham, Jeremy Irons, and Billy Howle.
