Knox for Palestine and Yarra Ranges Palestine Action invite you to a screening of "Palestinians Don't Need Sidewalks," a film by Dare to Struggle Films.

Join us for the screening, followed by a Q&A with Amin (Olive Kids) and Sivan (Loud Jew Collective)

Please pay as much as you can afford $10/$20/$30. Tea and coffee will be provided.

The film takes us on a journey through the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem that, through Palestinian eyes, profiles life living under Israeli occupation. Much of the film follows a Jewish University professor, an ex-politician and a Palestinian Australian student activist who were investigating Israel’s settler colonial apartheid society. Through visiting Palestinian homes in East Jerusalem, Silwan and Nabi Samwil the film gives an account of life under Israeli occupation prior to Hamas’s jail breakout.

In 2024, Dare to Struggle Films partnered with the Hebron Human Rights Defenders who throughout the year gathered footage of Palestinian life and of Israeli aggression against Palestinians. They also conducted interviews as a reflection of life for Palestinians after October 7th.

The film also looks at Australia's complicity with Israel, particularly through Australia's commitment to reinvigorating its manufacturing base by integrating into the US military supply chain. It also touches on mainstream media and how the Zionist lobby has managed to control the information that is presented via these channels. This film goes beyond how mainstream media portrays Israel.

Proceeds go to Olive Kids - an Australian Foundation dedicated to support the children of Palestine.
