Screening of "To Shoot an Elephant" (Erased: Wiped Off the Map), Mon 18th January 2010 - University College Cork, room TBC, 1pm.

On December 19, 2008 a group belonging to International Solidarity Movement (I.S.M.), departed from Cyprus bound for Palestine. Their objective was to break through the Israeli blockade on the Gaza strip. They were the last group of foreigners that were able to enter in the territory. None of them dreamt what they were going to live through in the following weeks. This film, originally called “Erased: Wiped Off the Map” has been re-edited and retitled “To Shoot An Elephant”.

The Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign will be screening "To Shoot an Elephant" nationwide in January 2010. If you are interested in organising a screening in your area contact Freda on [email protected]
