Insurgent Transmissions A Palestine Film Series Event Promotional Image

 

MINNEAPOLIS, MN 

Insurgent Transmissions is a film series highlighting the varied Palestinian experience. Made by contemporary Palestinian makers, the films depict the many ways that Palestinians resist occupation in their daily lives and filmmaking practices. Beginning with Annemarie Jacir’s touching family drama, Wajib, the programming will unfold as a series of transmissions: Jacir chooses the second film, and each subsequent filmmaker will select the next film in the series. The films in Insurgent Transmissions highlight the works of contemporary Palestinian filmmakers, amplifying their voices through their films and the films they see as most urgent in this moment of cultural erasure and genocide.

This monthly series is presented by Mizna at Bryant Lake Bowl. Ticket fees go towards supporting the featured Palestinian filmmakers, sliding scale of $5–15. Additional opportunities to support urgent grassroots fundraisers in Gaza will be available at the screening.

MAY SCREENING

On May 29, 2024 at 7pm, join us for a screening of Infiltrators by Khaled Jarrar. In addition to ticket fees going to support the featured Palestinian filmmakers, we will be raising money for Crips for Esims for Gaza, an initiative which has been raising money to keep people in Gaza connected despite a months-long internet blackout.

ABOUT THE FILM

The checkpoint is closed. “Detour, detour!” shouts a taxi driver, announcing the beginning of yet another uncertain search for a way around the barriers curtailing Palestinian movement in the West Bank. Infiltrators is a visceral “road movie” that chronicles the daily travails of Palestinians of all backgrounds as they seek routes through, under, around, and over a bewildering matrix of barriers.
