INSIDERS' VIEWS: Iraq and Palestine
Bristol Docs and The Cube Cinema are proud to sponsor the screening of several recent documentaries made by Iraqis and Palestinians about the current crises in their homelands. The main objective of this series is to give our audience images made by, not just about, people from these countries. This is a series of films giving an "insider" view of events on the ground. Curated by Alisa Lebow.
