Nordic Palestinian Film Festival

The festival portrays Palestinian identity and reality by showing films that deal with people’s daily lives in the face of settlements, the Judaization of Jerusalem, the apartheid wall, the siege of Gaza, and the recurrence of war.

The festival aims to raise awareness amongst the Swedish population of the history and culture of Palestine by means of films, music, and other artworks. It is intended to lead to a cultural exchange between Swedes, Palestinians, and other immigrant communities. Sweden recognised Palestine as a state in 2014, but very little has been done since then to humanize this most de-humanized of peoples.
