Palestine Under Siege - film screening and Q&A panel

Amnesty International North-East Metro Group and Menzies for Palestine invite you to attend this thought-provoking documentary film screening.

Palestine Under Siege is a documentary film shot in mid-2023 in the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Israel, which takes you into the heart of the struggle for Palestinian self-determination. It highlights the human rights abuses suffered by the Palestinian people from the time of the 1948 Nakba, via personal interviews and in-depth research. Palestinian and Jewish human rights activists speak about the movement to dismantle Israeli apartheid.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A panel featuring guests:

• Dr Bushra Othman, Palestinian-Australian surgeon who recently returned from volunteering in Deir Al-Balah, Gaza.
  
• Dr Samah Sabawi, award-winning Palestinian Australian playwright, author and poet.
  
• Dr Peter Slezak, Jewish -Australian professor of philosophy, UNSW (joining online)
