On the second anniversary of the student encampments against the genocide in Palestine committed by Israel, we are organizing several film screenings with side events in the Netherlands.
Filmed during the May 2024 student encampments and subsequent actions, "Class Outside" is a collective documentary that captures everyday moments of resistance, solidarity, and clashes, exploring a landscape filled with bodies, slogans, cobblestones, and dreams.
Compiled almost entirely from screening recordings, "happiness" is a desktop documentary that maps various protests and solidarity actions in Amsterdam and brings the roles of social media and the digital realm into discussion.
The events will happen throughout May. Apart from film screenings, readings, and conversations, on Saturday, May 23rd, the filmmakers
