21 hours agoPalestine 36: A film about a revolt that nearly changed history
Palestine 36 connects today's crisis to British colonial rule and the 1936 Palestinian revolt.
The Toronto International Film Festival red carpet served as a backdrop for a protest calling for the end of the violence, death and destruction in Gaza on Friday at the world premiere of film that takes the audience back to the 1930s before the creation of the state of Israel, when the territory, then known as British Palestine, was under British colonial rule.
