. The events of 19447-48; explains the Nakba and
Palestinian diaspora, 49 minutes.This
film is based on three years of research on the circumstances of
Palestinian eviction from the New City (now West Jerusalem)
conducted in cooperation with the Institute for Jerusalem Studies.
It covers the events in Jerusalem and major villages to its south
and west in the period between the 1947 UN Partition Resolution and
the first truce between the Arab and Israeli forces in June 1948.
The film challenges the major myths surrounding the war of 1948 that
resulted in Israeli statehood and Palestinian exile. The film aims,
on the one hand, to explain the historical complexity of the
Palestinian Nakba in 1948, and provide insight into the diversity of
the Palestinian refugee experiences since then.
