Film Screening: A Caged Bird's Song

A 30-minute documentary about the struggle of Palestinian students to reach their schools and universities.

This will be followed by a short talk by Mira Dabit, National Secretary of the IPSC and former activist with the Birzeit Right to Education Campaign.

A Caged Bird's Song by Sobhi Zobaidi is a short documentary film about the struggle of students to reach their academic institutions. Under Israeli occupation Palestinian education has been a constant struggle rather than a basic right. This film examines the recent history of that struggle during Israel's current war of attrition against the population.

Filmed in the spring and summer of 2003, the film joins students and teachers on their everyday journey to reach their schools and universities under the regime of military roadblocks. Basic activities associated with educational life: reaching class, going home, attending graduation, have become immense challenges. In continuing to make the difficult journey, students and teachers assert their right to education and a future. This is their story.

This event is jointly organised by the Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign and The TCD Muslim Students' Associaition for Islamic Awareness Week, 2008.
