SUMMARY:Gaza Ghetto: 40 Year Anniversary Screening
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCCAS is pleased to host adjunct professor Joan Mandell for 
 a film screening and discussion of her film Gaza Ghetto filmed in 1984.\
 n\n“Gaza Ghetto: Portrait of a Palestinian Family 1948-1984”  is the 
 first feature documentary to portray daily life in Gaza within a political
  context. On the film’s 40th anniversary\, Gaza Ghetto puts today’s he
 adlines into historical perspective. It focuses on life under military occ
 upation in Jabalia\, the largest of all Palestinian refugee camps. A child
  is born and a child dies\, and we come to understand the impact of decade
 s of war and displacement on daily life and family rituals. We also meet I
 sraelis personally involved: soldiers on patrol\, settlers and government 
 architects of the military occupation\, Ariel Sharon\, among them.\n\nGaza
  Ghetto (82 minutes) by PeA Holmquist\, Joan Mandell and Pierre Bjorklund\
 n\nJoan Mandell is a documentary filmmaker and oral historian. Co-directo
 r of the feature-length documentary\, Gaza Ghetto: Portrait of a Palestin
 ian Family 1948-84. A founding editor of Al Fajr\, a Palestinian English-
 language newsweekly\, and instructor at Birzeit University in the occupied
  Palestinian territories. She served for two decades on the editorial boar
 d of Middle East Report\, and directed oral history and documentary pro
 jects at the Arab American National Museum. Now teaching at Georgetown’s
