Return to al-Ma’in
Palestinian historian Salman Abu Sitta worked with Forensic Architecture to create a reconstruction of his vanished birthplace, al-Ma’in. They discovered that the Israeli army has brought the old route from al-Ma’in back into use.
R 21 aka Restoring Solidarity
Militant films made between 1960 and 1980 presented the Palestinian struggle as a shining example to Japanese people opposed to US hegemony. An epilogue questions the boundary between sympathy, propaganda and identification.
