Film
Past event
Philip Carter Family Auditorium
Free
In six months, 19-year-old Atalya must either accept her mandatory Israeli army assignment or face prison.
Objector is preceded by documentary short Guy Hircefeld: A Guy with a Camera (Andrés Gallegos, 2018, 12 mins.). Guy Hircefeld, a veteran that served in the Israeli military at the start of its occupation of Palestine in the 1980s, now fights against Israeli occupation, ethnic cleansing, and environmental warfare. His only weapon is a camera.
A collaboration between the Canterbury Film Society and Amnesty International, this mini-festival is an open event over four days with free entry to all screenings (koha / donations always appreciated).
Directed by Molly Stuart, USA, 2019, 75 mins.
