Grateful to our local independent cinema @buxtonfilm.bsky.social for screening 'Put Your Soul In Your Hand And Walk'

Shame on you and your complicit #Labour UK government, @jon4highpeak.bsky.social, for funding this #genocide and the ongoing illegal occupation of Palestine.

Yesterday I saw the movie "Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk" on the life (and death) of Fatma Hassona a photo-journalist living in Gaza—just another heartwrenching view from inside that hell. It was infuriating.
Never again is now.

Today is a sad day for those who believe that cinema has the duty of socio-political transformation!

Venice awarded a consolation prize to Kaouther Ben Hania's horrifyingly real film about the Gaza Genocide.

The Golden Lion went to an American film instead.

Please go watch this documentary by @dogwoofdocs.bsky.social , about the brave Fatma Hassona, one of the victims of Israel's destruction of Gaza.

I hope that one day, clips of Fatma from this film will be on show at a genocide Memorial /museum in a rebuilt Gaza.
