Produced by Philip Rizk, THIS PALESTINIAN LIFE is a documentary film about nonviolent struggle in the face of Israeli occupation and the ongoing annexation of Pal estinian land. In the film, the Egyptian-German activist and directorinterweaves stories of Palestinian villagers and they carry out nonviolent resistance ("sumoud") in the face of settler violence and the documented injustices of the Israeli government. The film does not attempt to provide an overview of the entire conflict. Instead of using an oral history approach, THIS PALESTINIAN LIFE documents the stories of Palestinian farmers who struggle to maintain their way of life and very existence in the villages of Hebron, the Jordan Valley, and the Gaza Strip as these communities continue to find peaceful, creative and bold ways to remain on their land today, tomorrow and for as long as it takes. (29 min.)
