Presented by South Philly Autonomous Cinema
October 8, 2024 Doors at 7:30pm
Join South Philly Autonomous Cinema as we mark a year of war and genocide in Gaza with Palestinian filmmaker Elia Suleiman’s first feature film Chronicle of a Disappearance (1996). Winner of the Venice Film Festival’s Best First Film Prize, this black comedy portrays the everyday absurdities of life under Israeli occupation: struggling to find an apartment in West Jerusalem, Holy Land souvenir shops, Israeli soldiers taking a piss on the side of the road.
