Programme
QUEERUPTION is a gathering of radical queers that has happened every
year for the last 9 years in different cities ( Barcelona , London ,
Berlin , San Francisco ...) . In August 2006, a hundred queers came
together to Tel aviv to fight , protest , live together, love each
other and put their energy in the international struggle against the
occupation of Palestine.

On saturday the 3rd of february , starting around 1pm til 8 pm, we
will show movies about Palestine and Israel, have people talking
about their experiences at Queeruption 9 and in the Palestinian Occupied
Territories, we will watch videos and share food like yummie falafels
and houmous ! All money raised will be sent to a ( not decided yet )
organisation in Palestine.

You are very welcome to pass by for an hour or for the day !
The event ( and the party following it in benefit for Queers against
G8 - ) will happen in the newly refurbished RAMPART , Rampart
street , off Commercial Road , East London .

MOVIES :
Around 1 pm : IZKOR , SLAVES OF MEMORY.
A film by Eyal Sivan.
Izkor means remember in hebrew and this film looks in depth at this
imperative that is imposed on the children of Israel. In Israel ,
during the month of April, feast days and celebrations take place one
after another. School children of all ages prepare to pay tribute to
their country's past. The collective memory becomes a terribly
efficient tool for the training of young minds.
This award-winning film put forward a passionate and severe analysis
of the Hebrew state.

Around 6 pm : AVENGE BUT ONE OF MY TWO EYES.
A film by Avi Mograbi, 2005, Israel/France.
Shot in the Occupied Territories , this controversial documentary
film draws parallels between the Israeli-Palestinian situation today
and the enduring myths of Samson and Masada. Mograbi offers a
powerful, at times chilling lament ofthe continuing cycles of
violence rooted in the past and threatening to engulf everyone's
future. With the roots of so much real-world conflict left unexamined
by today's restless media , this films reminds us just how vital
filmmakers like Avi Mograbi are.
