As part of its international tour, we are showing Kamal El Salim's "Viva Palastina - Reason of Resistance"
Set in Berlin, this documentary follows four activists navigating the Palestine solidarity movement and the escalating repression it faces, centring on the shutdown of the “Palästina Kongress" in 2024. From there, it turns to the city’s student movement and its role within a growing global struggle for expression and resistance. Underneath it all runs a deeper thread, how Germany’s unresolved history of fascism continues to shape its politics today.
The screening is organised together with Statewatch and the Palestinian Youth Movement, who will discuss the recent repression of the Palestinian movement in the UK.
