Summary:
"Director Tim Schwab (Being Osama) was so inspired by the quality and breadth of work being created by Palestinian filmmakers under the most difficult conditions, he decided to document this burgeoning cinema on film. His documentary, Cinema Palestine, features interviews with a wide range of film and media makers as well as excerpts from award-winning films to outline the emergence of the Palestinian narrative through film. Cinema Palestine also explores the implications of this important cinema on Palestinian national identity and the relationship between art, personal experience, and politics"
