No Other Land. 2024. Palestine/Norway. Directed by Basel Adra, Hamdan Ballal, Yuval Abraham, Rachel Szor. DCP courtesy Cinetic. In Arabic, English, Hebrew; English subtitles. 95 min.

Over five years, a Palestinian-Israeli collective of directors captured footage of Masafer Yatta residents in the West Bank and their struggle, survival, and death in the face of the Israeli military and settlers, as they witnessed the destruction of their homes and schools and were forced to leave their villages with nowhere to go. Yet No Other Land is more than a powerful work of cinéma vérité; it is the story of the growing friendship between Palestinian activist Basel Adra and Israeli journalist Yuval Abraham, both united by harrowing circumstances and one fragile idea: that through cinema and resistance, one can (perhaps) imagine a space of peace and freedom that never existed in their lives.

This film accompanies The Contenders 2024.
