WHERE SHOULD THE BIRDS FLY?

Fida Qishta, and Mona Samouni, Palestine, 2013 [PG] English 58 mins

The injustices of everyday life - farmers, fishermen, children and families – are documented in this unique and illuminating film (shot and narrated by Fida Qishta who filmed her own family home being demolished by Israeli bulldozers).  The   film also covers the 2008/09 Israeli offensive against Gaza. Fida Qishta films the terror and destruction, often at great personal risk, and talks to ten year old Mona whose entire family were killed by Israeli fire.   Highly recommended.

Sunday 13 December 2015 Screening CANCELLED (exceptionally)

We are very sad to announce the loss of our dear friend, comrade and founding member of the LSFC, Nicola Seyd. She gave us inspiration and wished us to continue with the film shows; she will be missed, but her perseverance, steadfastness, and kindness will inspire us on our paths.  

Her funeral will take place on the 18th of December, 3pm at Golders Green Crematorium, West Chapel. Nicola's wish was no flowers, but donations to the Morning Star.

Please note:

The London Socialist Film Co-op apologizes for having to cancel this film show due to circumstances beyond our control. We will however show WADJDA on  the 12th of June 2016, and will continue with our film shows at the Bolivar Hall on the 10th of January, 2016, every second Sunday of the month, from January to June, at 11 am.
