SUMMARY:From Ground Zero - A Documentary Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:\nFrom Ground Zero - A Documentary Film Screening\nThis film pr
 oject sought to provide internally displaced artists — survivors of Isra
 el’s long assault\, which has resulted in apocalyptic humanitarian condi
 tions\, destruction\, mass killing\, starvation\, disease\, and irreparabl
 e trauma for the people of Gaza — with a “canvas for the expression of
  personal stories.” The resulting collection features 22 three- to six-m
 inute short films. Genre and narrative approaches vary widely\, including 
 documentary\, hybrid forms\, narrative drama\, stop-motion animation\, ess
 ay\, and experimental video art. However\, what these remarkable works pre
 sent when taken together is critically important context and a counterpoin
 t to the gruesome livestream populating screens globally. The filmmakers
 ’ testimonies of confinement under relentless bombardment and imposed fa
 mine expose audiences to fragments of their daily struggle to survive — 
 and to do so with dignity. Chronicling the lives of people too often discu
 ssed in reference to numbers and refugee camps\, From Ground Zero is an ex
 traordinary time capsule\, an urgent response to an ongoing catastrophe\, 
 and an artist’s call to bear witness.\n\nA brief\, respectful discussion
  of the film will follow. Refreshments will be provided. FREE!!!\n\nClick
