The second annual Houston Palestine Film Festival brings an honest and independent view of Palestine and its diaspora’s society, culture and political travails through the art of film. This group of groundbreaking cinematic texts rise above the degrading stereotypes or reductively politicized depictions of Palestinians. A major goal of the Festival is to directly expose our local community to the perspective of artists as a first step toward circumventing the many government and media filters that pollute our understanding of Palestine and the wider region.
