Showing tonight is the brand new film OUT OF PLACE,OUT OF TIME (Stefan Markworth 50mins). A compelling, intimate documentary that reveals the difficult issues facing Palestinian refugees who have been living in limbo for the past 55 years in the Bourj Al Barajneh refugee camp in Lebanon.

Main feature: the award winning JENIN JENIN (Mohammed Bakri 50mins), including testimony from Jenin residents after the Israeli army's Defensive Wall operation, during which the city and camp were the scenes of fierce fighting. The operation ended with Jenin flattened and scores of Palestinians dead.
