About the film:

Since 2020, direct action group Palestine Action have documented and live-streamed their operations to dismantle the companies and infrastructure supplying weapons to the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Independent film makers Rainbow Collective have combined this cache of footage with narration by the group’s founders and interviews with activists, family members and journalists to follow the explosive growth of one of the world’s most effective and confrontational protest groups, and the backlash activists face as they incur the wrath of the British state and the arms companies operating on their soil.

A message from the independent filmmakers:

We feel that this is an important film, one in which activists and members of the public put forward arguments for why direct action is justified, morally and legally, against the companies supplying genocide. We also feel that proscription of a non-violent protest group is the most concerning example of authoritarian overreach that we have seen in the UK in our lifetimes, not just on the right to protest but on the rights of independent film makers, writers, journalists and artists like ourselves who should be allowed to platform the views and actions of non-violent protesters.

We ACKNOWLEDGE that this screening will be taking place on the stolen lands of the Jagera and Turrbal people in Magandjin. We PAY our respect to elders past, present and future.

From the river to the sea. Always was, always will be.
