Join the director and producers for a Bayside screening of their film, Palestine Under Siege, with special guest speakers!
Shot in Palestine in the West Bank and in Jerusalem in June and July 2023, this documentary features Australians, Dr Peter Slezak UNSW Honorary Associate Professor of Philosophy and his two companions, Rand Darwish, Australian Palestinian student and former Greens Senator, Lee Rhiannon. It explores the perspectives of Palestinians and Jews in Lebanon and Palestine on the themes of the 1948 Nakba, settler colonialism and the apartheid nature of the Israeli state.
Come and hear from some special guest speakers involved in making the film and local Greens representatives including Councillor Greta Werner, and Bayside candidates Bashir Sawalha and Peter Strong. The film will run for 60 minutes, and be followed by a Q&A session. This is a unique opportunity to see a film that will resonate with so many residents of the Bayside area and beyond.
