AANM and Cinema Lamont partner up to bring metro Detroit audiences a special screening of the Oscar nominated, award-winning Palestinian documentary, No Other Land.

The film follows Basel Adra, a young Palestinian activist from Masafer Yatta, who has been fighting his community’s mass expulsion by the Israeli occupation since childhood. Basel documents the gradual erasure of Masafer Yatta, as soldiers destroy the homes of families—the largest single act of forced transfer ever carried out in the occupied West Bank. He crosses paths with Yuval, an Israeli journalist who joins his struggle, and for over half a decade they 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. This film was co-created by a Palestinian-Israeli collective of four young activists during one of the darkest, most terrifying times in the region as an act of creative resistance to Apartheid and a search for a path toward equality and justice.

Content Warning: This film may contain strong graphic images and heavy/emotional subject-matter.
