Talk and film screening.
Bristol's most intrepid sports club, Easton Cowboys, recently became the first British football team to tour the Occupied Territories. The trip was a gruelling but eye opening experience that encompassed games played, quite literally, in the shadow of the Apartheid wall, kickarounds under the watchful eye of the IDF as well as an unlikely meeting with the Palestinian national coach. This is a chance to hear about their experiences and the insights they gained into life and sport in the West Bank.
This will be followed by GOAL DREAMS, a documentary about the Palestinian national team and the huge problems they encountered in attempting to qualify for the 2006 World Cup Finals.
