TRAILER: Great Love | The Gaza Monologues Revisited
"It's kind of corny, but I think about this quote from Che Guevara: "the true revolutionary is guided by feelings of great love." Aliya Pabani, artist, organizer and collaborator.
A glimpse into the friends and friends of friends that share their stories in our upcoming series: an adaptation of the Gaza Monologues by Ashtar Theatre (Ramallah). A group of artists, activists and students from Palestine and beyond read the famed monologues from 2010. Speaking words written by teenagers experiencing war in Gaza over a decade ago, we reflect on what's happening today.
“We relate with every single word in this monologue. [But] this is bigger than any war we’ve lived before.” Tarneem Jaber.
Please give generously to the young people from Gaza who shared their stories in the series: empower them to reclaim their dreams HERE.
Music: : Marj Ibn Amer - Muqata’a
