On Friday, we are organizing an «emergency» movie night, in response to the attack by colonial settlers on Hamdan Ballal, co-director of the Oscar-winning Israel-Palestine documentary “No other Land", and his brutal arrest by the Israeli Military. Although H. Ballal has since been set free, we take this occasion to question the global escalation we are now being thrown into.

Movie nights is a format for a transdisciplinary exchange: Starting each time from one film, we open the space for a conversation about the relations between production of images and their conditions – modes of narration, authorship, history, politics and effects on society. We show fiction, documentaries, movie and television productions in regard to the actual situation, focusing on Palestinian and Israeli films.

The movie nights are hosted and organized by the departments of Applied Photography, Klasse für Alle, Art and Communicative Practices, Philosophy, and Transcultural Studies.
