The third film of the Falasteen Film Fridays series will be “Amreeka.”
A heart-warming and funny film, "Amreeka" follows the struggles of a single Palestinian mother immigrating to the United States and trying to build a life for herself and son in small-town Illinois. Preceding that film will be "Made in Palestine," a short film about the last-remaining kuffiyeh factory in Palestine.
Afterwards will be a discussion with Arab American Family Services (AAFS), a community organization offering a wide range of services to anyone in need.
This event is free for everyone, so don't miss out. The film will be screened on Facebook here (must have a Facebook account) and on Vimeo here. PLEASE NOTE: These links will go public at the time of the film screening.
Tune in at 8:30pm CST.
Thank you to all our sponsors and to our partner, Palestine in America!
