Walls Cannot Keep Us From Flying documentary
Jan 22, 2023From kottke.org: “Jonathan Mehring’s short documentary https://www.documentary.org/project/walls-cannot-keep-us-flying follows two young Palestinians who have found freedom in skateboarding while surrounded by walls & barbed wire and facing harassment from Israeli authorities and their own families & communities.”
Pockets of Resistance
John Kottke brings an important notice to a documentary about a couple of Palestinian youth seeking to express their freedom through skateboarding, while under the constant reminder of occupation by Israeli forces.
The film is available on youtube at: https://youtu.be/TSIe_twCYnc
The Instagram account, walls_film, shows various cuts and images of the movie, and seems like a good place to keep up.
