Based on the book by award-winning journalist Antony Loewenstein, The Palestine Laboratory reveals how Israel has turned Palestine into a testing ground for weapons and surveillance technologies. In two parts, the film first exposes how these tools are trialled on Palestinians, then follows their export across the world—from authoritarian regimes to Western democracies—entrenching systems of repression far beyond Palestine.

All donations from this year’s festival will go to Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS), providing humanitarian assistance as well as health and social services to Palestinians whenever and wherever needed. You can donate when buying tickets.
