No Other Land (15)
Dir. Yuval Abraham, Basel Adra, Hamdan Ballal, Occupied Palestinian Territory, 2024, 95 mins. In Arabic with English subtitles.
Movingly captured by a Palestinian-Israeli collective, this award-winning film spotlights the gradual erasure of Palestinian activist Basel Adra’s community, as he forms an unlikely alliance with Israeli journalist Yuval Abraham, in an effort to document the ongoing occupation. Basel, from Masafer Yatta, has been fighting his community's mass expulsion by the Israeli occupation since childhood. In this film, he documents the largest single act of forced transfer ever carried out in the occupied West Bank. For over half a decade Basel and Yuval fight against the expulsion while growing closer. Their complex bond is haunted by the extreme inequality between them: Basel, living under a brutal military occupation, and Yuval, unrestricted and free.
No Other Land was co-created during the darkest, most terrifying times in the region, as an act of creative resistance to Apartheid and a search for a path towards equality and justice.
