Sands 25: No Other Land (15) - Pay What You Can: £12, £10, £8
Follow Palestinian activist-journalist Basel Adra and Israeli activist-journalist Yuval Abraham in this Oscar-winning documentary that illuminates the relentless expulsion of families from their homes in Israeli-occupied Masafer Yatta. Set against a decades-old conflict, No Other Land captures four years of escalating home demolitions and apartheid, as families face the devastating choice between seeking refuge in caves or being forcibly displaced from the land they call home. In a world marked by fear, the protest endures, as does the unlikely yet unbreakable friendship between Basel and Yuval. Together, they confront the daunting questions of their futures, navigating the complexities of their political statuses and freedoms. Determined to uncover the truth, they explore the camera's power as a tool for resistance, as their journalism of community histories in a besieged world continues to speak truth to power.
