A nominee for Best Documentary at this year’s Academy Awards, No Other Land is a documentary from the collective work of four filmmakers/activists. Focusing on the community of Msafer Yatta, which is located in the southern part of the West Bank, the film chronicles resistance and survival of residents who are saturated in violence. Filmed over the course of many years, No Other Land also highlights the close friendship between Basel Adra, a young Palestinian activist, and Yuval Abraham, a Jewish Israeli journalist, as they work together to tell both the overarching narratives and smaller stories within their community. Their relationship stands as an inspiration for forging alliances under extreme duress.
