SUNDAY SCREENING: ‘Palestine is Still the Issue’ by John Pilger (2002)

Our weekly documentary film curated by the editorial team at 21WIRE.

This is one of John Pilger’s most timely and pertinent documentary films, chronicling the decades-long illegal Israeli occupation of Palestine and brutal colonial subjugation of the native Palestinian people. In a series of extraordinary interviews with both Palestinians and Israelis, John Pilger weaves together the issue of Palestine. He speaks to the families of suicide bombers and their victims; he sees the humiliation of Palestinians imposed on them at myriad checkpoints and with a permit system not dissimilar to apartheid South Africa’s infamous pass laws. He goes into the refugee camps and meets children who, he says, “no longer dream like other children, or if they do, it is about death.” Watch:
