Montreal's Anarchist Bookshop
==============================>

A unique event, with live film-screenings on the street in Montreal, which 
illustrate the front-lines of the Palestinian struggle for liberation 
throughout the world. This event is being organized as part of the mobilization 
towards the May 6th demonstration, "Refugee Camps Are No One's Home", organized 
to support the ongoing struggle against the deportation of Palestinian refugees 
from Canada and to condemn the ongoing construction of the Israeli Apartheid 
Wall.

{This event will also include a series of short presentations from members of 
the Coalition Against the Deportation of Palestinian Refugees and the 
International Solidarity Movement (ISM) of Montreal.}

FILMS Include:
::::::::::::::

----> IT'S ALL LIES! - A documentary about Israeli Anarchists Against the Wall. 
This fascinating and action-packed documentary looks at a growing and 
controversial movement in Israel, the Anarchists Against the Wall. Voicing 
their uncompromising support for Palestinian resistance against Israeli 
apartheid, the Anarchists Against the Wall are fighting the empire directly 
within the belly of the beast.

----> MYTHOS CANADIENSIS (Les Lucioles, 2003) - A short documentary directed by 
David Widgington of Les Lucioles, a video activist collective in Montreal. The 
film documents the struggle of Palestinian refugees in Montreal against 
deportation at the hands of Citizenship and Immigration Canada, specifically 
focusing on the deportation of Palestinian Refugee Ahmed Abdel Majeed in fall 
of 2003, who was deported to Ein el-Helweh refugee camp in Southern Lebanon.

----> JENIN JENIN (Mohamed Bakri 2003) - A documentary film on the Israeli 
military incursion into the Palestinian refugee camp of Jenin in April 2002, 
widely viewed as one of the most devastating Israeli military operations during 
the second Intifada. This film provides moving testimonies from residents of 
the Jenin refugee camp in the days after the military incursion, which 
destroyed large sections of the refugee camp, surrounding areas and left more 
than 50 Palestinians dead.

SONS et IMAGES de la lutte de libération PALESTINIENNE
Projection de films en plein air au centre-ville de Montréal

===============================>
JEUDI 5 MAI à 21h00
2033, rue St-Laurent
(Métro St-Laurent)
En plein air, à côté de L'insoumise,
Librairie anarchiste de Montréal
===============================>

Événement unique avec projection de films dans la rue à Montréal. Ces films 
illustrent les devants de la scène de la lutte de libération palestinienne dans 
le monde. Il fait partie de la mobilisation pour la manifestation du 6 mai sur 
le thème « les camps de réfugiés ne sont pas des foyers », organisée pour 
soutenir la poursuite de la lutte contre la déportation des réfugiés 
palestiniens du Canada et pour condamner la construction du Mur de l'apartheid 
israélien.

{Cet évènement comportera aussi une suite de courtes présentations par les 
membres de la Coalition Contre la Déportation des Réfugiés Palestiniens et du 
Mouvement de Solidarité International (ISM) à Montréal.}

:::::::::::::::::::
FILMS projetés :
:::::::::::::::::::

----> IT'S ALL LIES! - Documentaire sur les Anarchistes israéliens contre le 
Mur. Fascinant et plein d'action, ce documentaire illustre un mouvement 
controversé qui prend de l'ampleur en Israël: les Anarchistes contre le Mur. En 
exprimant leur soutien sans compromis à la résistance palestinienne contre 
l'apartheid israélien, les Anarchistes contre le Mur luttent contre l'empire 
directement de l'intérieur du système.

-----> MYTHOS CANADIENSIS (Les Lucioles, 2003) - Court documentaire réalisé par 
David Widgington des Lucioles, collectif de militants de Montréal. Le film 
documente la lutte des réfugiés palestiniens de Montréal contre leur 
déportation par Citoyenneté et Immigration Canada. Il examine tout 
particulièrement la déportation du réfugié palestinien Ahmad Abdel Majeed, à 
l'automne 2003, vers le camp de réfugiés d'Ein-el-Hilweh au Sud Liban.

-----> JENIN JENIN (Mohammed Bakri 2003) - Documentaire sur l'incursion de 
l'armée israélienne dans le camp de réfugiés palestiniens de Jénine en avril 
2002, incursion considérée comme l'un des opérations militaires israéliennes 
les plus dévastatrices de la Deuxième Intifada. Ce film présente des 
témoignages très émouvants de résidents du camp de réfugiés de Jénine dans les 
jours qui ont suivi l'incursion militaire qui a détruit de grandes parties du 
camp et de ses environs, et qui a fait plus de 50 morts.

Organisé par: La Coalition contre la déportation des réfugiés palestiniens, Le 
Mouvement de Solidarité International (ISM) de Montréal et la Série de Films 
Need 2 Know.
