9pm THURSDAY JULY 29th:

A selection of short Palestinian films including footage of the Israeli 'Anarchists against the Wall', and Jacquie Saloum's 'PLANET OF THE ARABS' - Also 'THE SUN DOESN'T SHINE IN THE CAMP' - a short documentary on the Balata refugee camp.

The main feature is 'ARTICLE 17 : DOCTORS IN PALESTINE' (57 mins - Saleyha Ahsan) - A glimpse into the life threatening profession of being a medic on the frontline in Nablus. Article 17 refers to the 4th Geneva Convention insisting that medical support must be given free passage in conflict zones. Director Saleyha Ahsan follows international and Palestinian medics as they attempt to get help to the people of Ramallah and Nablus during heavy fighting. The intelligence and sensitivity of the medical teams is apparent, as they face death or deportation attempting to get aid through to the innocents caught up in the fighting. This is raw filmmaking, giving us recent, bloody, terrifying images from the front line of the world's most deliberately ignored battleground. Ahsan, a Dundee University medical student herself, gets a unique insight into the work of the medical teams and their patients.

Featuring Q&A with film-maker and speakers.
