SATURDAY 8 SEPTEMBER at 7.00pm
Avenge But One of My Two Eyes (France/Israel, 2005)
Director/writer: Avi Mograbi   M offensive language, 100 mins
“Israeli documentarian Avi Mograbi plays tourist, juxtaposing  
camcorder images of furious Palestinians queued at various  
checkpoints with those of expansive Israeli guides explicating the  
shrine of Masada and teachers holding forth on the cult of Samson.  
His unstated, heretical thesis is that the Palestinians have adopted  
the suicidal heroism that is a cornerstone of right-wing Zionism...  
Mograbi's first-person film was seemingly chosen to provide a  
counterpoint with the Palestinian drama Paradise Now and is no less  
appalling” - Village Voice
Tickets: $8 Waged  / $6 Unwaged
