DESCRIPTION:DOUBLE FEATURE\n\nTHE LAND SPEAKS ARABIC \n \nIn this 2007 documentary by 
 Palestinian filmmaker Maryse Gargour,  the late 19th century birth of 
 Zionism ─ and its repercussions for Palestinians ─ is detailed with 
 original source documents, rare archival footage, testimonies of witnesses, 
 and interviews with historians.  All help to illustrate that the expulsion 
 of the indigenous Arab population from Palestine was far from an accidental 
 result of the 1948 war.  This award-winning film shines a spotlight on the 
 ethnic cleansing of Palestine by the Zionist movement.\n\n33 
 DAYS\n\nPalestinian filmmaker Mai Masri puts a face on the 
 often-desensitized horrors of war taking us beyond the icy statistics and 
 muted news stories into the fiery reality and courageous hearts of the 
 survivors.  Filmed during the Israeli war on Lebanon in the summer of 2006, 
 this gripping documentary follows the real-life stories of four people:  a 
 theatre director working with children who took shelter in a theatre after 
 their homes were destroyed;  an aid worker who coordinated emergency relief 
 efforts;  a journalist for an underground television station;  and a mother 
 trying to cope with her new-born baby.  \n \nWheelchair accessible around 
 the corner at  411  28th  Street\n\nBefore and after the films, everyone's 
 invited to indulge in our organic, vegetarian refreshments.\n\n$5 donations 
 are accepted\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2009/02/10/18569430.php
