The Future of the USA has never been more entangled with the future of Palestine
Director Ahmed Mansour and Filistia Films invite you to a special lunch at Al-Hambra restaurant on Sunday, January 28th at 12pm to celebrate the life of his sister Shaima and her baby Maha who were killed by USA backed Israeli forces on December 6th. Out of his grief, Ahmed is launching a new series of short films dedicated to the memory of his loved ones, and exploring what impact the Gaza war is going to have on the US Election in November especially in the swing States. Filistia produced Brooklyn Inshallah to chronicle the rise of an Arab and Muslim American voting block-never will that block have more importance in determining the next President of the USA. This is a decisive moment for the USA and Palestine but who will decide that future? Come and be part of history.
The program will include:
– lunch
– conversation with community leaders
– launching the new series “Flip it” which will follow election 2024 like Brooklyn Inshallah followed the 2018 elections
