Thank you for this Sarah. Foragers is an incredible film — if you ever see it screening anywhere, please watch it. I’m at a film festival right now that is showing TWO Palestinian films. They’ve been very clear about their intention of centring Palestinian voices this year. One of the films, which is now on the festival circuit, is called No Other Land, where a Palestinian man documents Israeli aggression and destruction of his village, Masafer Yatta, over the last ten years, with increasing violence this year.

Another, not Palestinian but that does have beautifully shot scenes in West Bank rock quarries, is Apple Cider Vinegar, which I believe might be on Netflix right now.

Thank you for this list, I hope I can make my way through a few of these films.

Thank you for this, Lala. I’m compiling a list I’ll be sharing at the end of the month with everyone’s recommendations as well — will add these wonderful suggestions to this list. Thank you for reading and sharing.
