In historical Palestine, foraging for wild ‘akkoub and za’atar – traditional foods that Palestinians have gathered from the land for generations – is punishable by fines and imprisonment. Threading together fiction, documentary, and archival footage, Foragers reveals how Israeli legislation in the name of natural conservation constitutes yet another means of separating Palestinians from their land – and of deciding which lives are worthy of protection. Spellbinding and utterly transportative, Foragers examines food as a living terrain for omnipresent settler colonial violence, but also unassailable Palestinian resistance.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A and a celebration of Palestinian Culture!

Food and drinks will be available for purchase on the night.

All donations, once the festival costs are covered, are going to the charity The Middle East’s Children Alliance, an established charity that has been serving children in the region since 1988.
