Center for Israel Studies invites you to the screening of SHALAL: A REEL WAR and Q&A with Director Karnit Mandel
This event is co-organized by Judaic Studies Department and free and open to the public.
While searching in an Israeli archive, a hardheaded filmmaker stumbles across film reels from a long-lost PLO archive seized by Israel in the 1982 Lebanon war.
As never-before-seen footage of Palestinians is revealed, she begins to wonder what is so dangerous in it that it requires hiding.
The more she uncovers about the content of the films, the more she comes into conflict with the bureaucracy of Israel's defense apparatus, which denies possessing additional footage. Will she be able to wrestle back any of this untold history, or will the reels forever remain buried?
