fz i'm going on wednesday. tell me if you want to go and we'll meet up.
Yeah let's meet up. Count me in.
shou marmour.. non-stop al3aliya?
Wedding in Galilee and Chronicle of a Disappearance are both great. Both are available on dvd though; it would be so much better if the festival had searched for palestinian movies that did not get relatively large distribution, but I guess they tred and couldn't get any.
jij i came accross this link (http://www.caabu.org/events/palestinian-film-festival.html). do you know if any of these movies are on DVD? i couldn't find any on amazon. i ask since you're the cinema expert. have you seen your caricature on LB yahoo group?
dont think so mirvat... none available. except chronicle of a disappearance...
Elia Suleiman has a fine movie "Divine Intervention".
You can find all the movies on Emule - for free, but then in USA you can end up in court for that, don't know...
O Mirvat, I wish I could make it this Wed/Thurs :( but will be stuck in the hospital until late both nights... I would love to do something soon though! There are actually two films this weekend that I was thinking about getting to...
