About the Film
For a hundred years, Israel and its supporters have labelled Palestinians as terrorists, but hidden in Israel's own archives are details of Zionist actions against the Palestinians that sometimes have the characteristics of atrocities committed by the Nazis against the Jews. This film argues that Zionist and Israeli racism against the Palestinians leads to similar crimes to those committed against Jews as a result of antisemitism.

About the Film
After twenty-one years, the shadows of Israeli pursuits continue to relentlessly chase Palestinian director Mohammed Bakri for his documentary "Jenin... Jenin." Originally filmed after the brutal Israeli invasion of the Jenin refugee camp in 2002, the documentary served as a vivid testament to the devastation and oppression experienced by its people. The film became a point of legal contention, with Israeli authorities accusing Bakri of distorting the truth and damaging the image of the Israeli army. Courts ruled to ban the film's screening and confiscate all copies. Now, in 2023, with history repeating itself, the Israeli military has launched another destructive assault on the Jenin camp. Bakri, once again armed with his camera, returns to document the aftermath of this devastation.

The Story behind Stitching Palestine

Twelve Palestinian women sit before us and talk of their life before the Diaspora, of their memories, of their lives and of their identity.
Their narratives are connected by the enduring thread of the ancient art of embroidery.

Twelve resilient, determined and articulate women from disparate walks of life: lawyers, artists, housewives, activists, architects, and politicians stitch together the story of their homeland, of their dispossession, and of their unwavering determination that justice will prevail.

Through their stories, the individual weaves into the collective, yet remaining distinctly personal. Twelve women, twelve life-spans and stories from Palestine; a land whose position was fixed on the map of the world, but is now embroidered on its face.
