The Bristol Palestine Film Festival is back in 2023 with a diverse lineup of the very best in contemporary Palestinian cinema, arts and culture. As well as a diverse range of films, for the first time we are hosting an evening of live spoken word with popular local poetry night Raise the Bar.
We acknowledge the difficult circumstances of this year’s events in Israel and Palestine, and we remain committed to our founding aim of showcasing Palestinian cinema and culture. We hope that this year’s festival will provide a space for commemoration, reflection and discussion, and we believe in giving a platform for Palestinian stories, culture and traditions.
We are disappointed to have to announce that Arnolfini are no longer hosting our two events on Saturday 2nd December – Farha at 4pm, and Poetry on Palestine (with Lowkey) at 7.30pm.
