Who has the right to the land? | NO OTHER LAND
In recent months, the news from Palestine has mostly been about the attacks on Gaza, but what is actually happening in the West Bank? In collaboration with the Palestine Committee, we invite you to a screening of NO OTHER LAND followed by a conversation about the situation in the West Bank.
About the conversation:
Several Israeli ministers live in colonies on occupied Palestinian land. They openly say that they want control over as much land as possible with as few Palestinians as possible. NO OTHER LAND shows how Palestinians themselves are in the fight for their homes, but what are the reactions from other states, and what does international law say about the right to the land? The leader of the Palestine Committee, Line Khateeb, leads a discussion with Josef Adam Younes and the Palestinian ambassador to Norway, Marie Antoinette Seline.
About the film:
A Palestinian activist allies with an Israeli investigative journalist. Together, they fight against Israel's settler policy that daily displaces Palestinians in the West Bank and renders them homeless. NO OTHER LAND powerfully tells of Palestinian activism and underscores how activism is passed down from generation to generation. Over several years, an Israeli-Palestinian film collective – consisting of two Palestinian and two Israeli filmmakers – has documented the injustice Palestinians in the West Bank are subjected to daily, leading up to the dramatic developments in the fall of 2023.
Participants:
Marie Antoinette Selin is the ambassador of Palestine to Norway.
Josef Adam Younes is a lawyer and board member of the Initiative Defend International Law.
Moderator: Line Khateeb is the leader of the Palestine Committee in Norway.
