About this Event
1936.
As villages across Mandatory Palestine rise against British colonial rule, Yusuf drifts between his rural home and the restless energy of Jerusalem, longing for a future beyond the growing unrest. But history is relentless. With rising numbers of Jewish immigrants escaping antisemitism in Europe, and the Palestinian population uniting in the largest and longest uprising against Britain’s 30-year dominion, all sides spiral towards inevitable collision in a decisive moment for the British Empire and the future of the entire region.
Palestine 36 is a 2025 historical drama film written and directed by Annemarie Jacir that chronicles the interwoven stories of ordinary citizens during the 1936–1939 Great Arab Revolt against British colonial rule and Zionist settlement in Mandatory Palestine.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A.
Please note that the film is 2 hours long.
