Synopsis
In 2002, during Israel’s invasion of Jenin refugee camp, journalists were barred and war crime accusations emerged. Filmmaker Mohammad Bakri entered to record residents’ testimonies, giving voice to those silenced. The film was banned, sparking legal battles and accusations from soldiers. Years later, Israel’s Supreme Court overturned the ban, restoring this raw account of a community under siege.

About PCD Around The World
As international news outlets, world leaders, and major social media platforms continue to censor and distort the narrative while fueling the dehumanization of Palestinians and their ongoing suffering, we are using our channels to support the forcibly canceled Palestine Cinema Days Festival.

On November 2, the anniversary of the Balfour Declaration, we are organizing over 500 Palestinian film screenings around the world. This global effort is a show of solidarity with Palestine, an act of amplification for censored Palestinian voices, and a contribution to shifting the distorted narrative.

C.C. Sartañani Bolivia invites you from 13:00 to 17:00 for a unique cultural experience around Todos los Santos. 
 
During this workshop, we will learn together how to make pancitos de muertos or T'antawawas: bread buns in human figures from the Andean cosmovision. We will also build a traditional Bolivian altar of Todos los Santos, a colourful table full of bread, flowers and symbols with which families commemorate and welcome their deceased loved ones. 

A warm and creative day, open to families, where you will not only bake but also participate in an ancient tradition that connects the living with their ancestors. 

1:00 p.m. — Screening of animated documentary about the T'antawawas (15 min.)
1:30 p.m. — Baking T'antawawas (All Saints' Day bread)
4:30 p.m. — Group singing around the ‘T'antawawas Table’
5:00 p.m. — Conclusion of the T'antawawas celebration in honour of All Saints' Day. All participants will leave with their offerings.

On October 31st, we honour our ancestors and those who are no longer with us.
We build a bridge between life and death by sharing traditions and stories about our ancestors.
Together, we will also build and decorate an altar. Be sure to bring photos or other memorabilia to contribute to the altar. For hungry tummies: snacks and drinks will be provided. We’ll end the evening with a concert by C.C. Sartañani Bolivia.
