Ciné Résistance at soso: The Palestinian Cause
"Budrus" (2009) by Julia Bacha (81min)
Budrus is an award-winning documentary about a Palestinian community organizer, Ayed Morrar. Together with his 15-year-old daughter Iltezam, who leads a women’s contingent that quickly moves to the front lines of the resistance, Ayed unleashes an inspiring, yet little known movement to save their village Budrus from destruction by Israel’s separation Barrier in the Occupied Palestinian Territories by unarmed struggle. Ayed succeeds in uniting feuding Palestinian political groups including Fatah and Hamas and in welcoming hundreds of Israelis to cross into Palestinian territory for the first time to join this resistance movement. Many of the activists who joined the villagers of Budrus are nowadays continuing to support nonviolence efforts in villages from Bil’in to Nabi Saleh to Hebron to Sheikh Jarrah in East Jerusalem.

soso.space launches a new format: Ciné Résistance.
On Tuesday evenings, soso.space will be screening motion pictures and documentaries viewing global history, issues and causes from the perspective of the oppressed, starting on 30 January with a film series about Palestine and the Palestinian cause.
The movies and documentaries shown will all be selected and – if possible - presented by people affected by the cause. We hope to create a space, where people affected, their allies and people interested to understand history and context of ongoing issues can meet. The bar will stay open after the movie screenings and offer space for discussions for everyone who wants to stay for a drink.
These movie screenings are Soli-events. Every contribution to run the event is voluntary. The collected funds at the door will be going to an organization related to the cause shown in the screening in full. The bar revenue will be used to pay for the expenses of the event.
Ciné Résistance wants to provide a safer space for people to come together, talk, share thoughts or just watch a movie and get inspired. We certainly encourage SWANA-people to join.
Ciné Résistance is preparing a list of links and information about Palestine/Gaza and the ongoing genocide in order to give people the possibility to educate themselves if required. Until further notice, the evenings on the topic of Palestine are taking place on a weekly basis.
soso.space will provide a bar at low cost, tea and snacks for free. Before and after the screening, curated music will be played, selected by artists close to the cause.
