Both established as well as new Palestinian filmmakers came together in a project that would reflect the mood of this summer. In three minutes or less, filmmakers were restricted to using one-shot only to tell their stories. Despite the fact that Palestinians have been dispersed across the globe, with the majority of them being refugees, Summer 2006, Palestine, initiated by the Palestinian Film Collective, was limited to those filmmakers who live in Palestine. The result is a unique collection of thirteen short films from across Palestine, delving into the personal, the political, and the poetic - the spirit of a people struggling for freedom. |
