IN A THOUSAND SILENCES
‘In A Thousand Silences’ is a virtual reality film, celebrating Palestinian culture whilst highlighting the brutal censorship of artists.
Combining dance, music, poetry and storytelling with performances from some of Palestine's most renowned artists, including actor Mohammad Bakri, musician Suhail Khoury and poet Dareen Tatour.
Using the latest digital technology, audiences are taken across Palestine from the desert, to the mountains, to Jenin Refugee Camp and theatres, both ancient and new, to explore culture as a form of resistance and the violent repercussions Palestinian artists are facing.
