Five Broken Cameras
From Washington Chapter of Jewish Voice for Peace:
Five Broken Cameras Documentary Shows Israeli Incursions into West Bank Never Before Captured on Camera
Busboys & Poets and Jewish Voice for Peace to sponsor special Peace Cafe discussion following July 15 showing at E Street Cinema
No matter what you think you know about the conditions under which Palestinians must live in the West Bank, or about the resilience of the non-violent resistance movement there, your eyes will be opened by “Five Broken Cameras.” The award-winning documentary is coming to DC, and to facilitate the provocative discussion that follows any viewing of the film, Busboys & Poets and the DC Metro chapter of Jewish Voice for Peace will host a Peace Cafe immediately following the July 15 4:45 p.m. show at the Landmark E Street Cinema, 555 11th St. NW. Tickets are now on sale online. Buy early because we expect the show to sell out!
A little about the film: 5 Broken Cameras is a deeply personal, first-hand account of non-violent resistance in Bil’in, a West Bank village threatened by encroaching Israeli settlements. Shot almost entirely by Palestinian farmer Emad Burnat, who bought his first camera in 2005 to record the birth of his youngest son, the footage was later given to Israeli co-director Guy Davidi to edit. Structured around the violent destruction of each one of Burnat’s cameras, the filmmakers’ collaboration follows one family’s evolution over five years of village turmoil. Burnat watches from behind the lens as olive trees are bulldozed, protests intensify, and lives are lost. “I feel like the camera protects me,” he says, “but it’s an illusion.” For more information, read or listen to the interview Amy Goodman conducted with the directors on the July 7 broadcast of Democracy Now.
Leading the audience dialogue session the film will be Noura Erakat, a Palestinian attorney and activist. She is currently an adjunct professor of international human rights law in the Middle East at Georgetown University, and the Legal Advocacy Coordinator for the Badil Center for Palestinian Refugee and Residency Rights. Joining Busboys & Poets and the DC Metro Chapter of Jewish Voice for Peace as partners in sponsoring the July 15 showing and discussion are DC Metro chapter of Sabeel and the Washington Interfatih Alliance for Middle East Peace (WIAMEP).

This is a nice way of showing a film about war indirectly. Cameras are really an open hole to history and reality. Now I am exhausting the usage of camera on my perth real estate photography and consider it as a help to increase client.

This is very common in these types of mass shooting scenarios but it almost always conveniently omitted in the press.

That was one good documentary on the cameras and the people who are working with them. The story has a good hold on the topic as well.
