Description:

“The Village Under the Forest”

A documentary film by Mark J Kaplan and Heidi Grunebaum

Using the hidden remains of a destroyed Palestinian village that lie under a purposefully cultivated forest plantation called South Africa Forest in Israel, this documentary explores themes related to the erasure and persistence of memory, and dares to imagine a future in which dignity, acknowledgement and co-habitation become shared possibilities in Israel/Palestine.

A discussion will follow the screening of the film (54 minutes long)
