#Palestinian Filmmaker Demands End to US-Backed '#EthnicCleansing' of #Gaza, #WestBank in Oscar Speech

"There is a different path, a political solution without #EthnicSupremacy," said Israeli filmmaker Yuval Abraham. "The foreign policy in this country is helping to block this path."

by Julia Conley, Mar 03, 2025

"The winner of the 2025 #AcademyAward for Best Documentary Feature Film has been unable to obtain distribution in #theaters or on #StreamingPlatforms in the U.S.—despite being the highest-grossing Oscar-nominated documentary in the rest of the world—but American viewers were able to hear directly from its filmmakers on Sunday night in speeches that condemned the U.S.-backed 'ethnic cleansing' of Palestinians.

"The directors behind #NoOtherLand, Israeli journalist #YuvalAbraham and Palestinian activist and lawyer #BaselAdra, accepted the Oscar while speaking out about the subject matter of their film, which was filmed between 2019-23, before Israel began its bombardment of Gaza in retaliation for a Hamas-led attack.

"'When I look at Basel, I see my brother, but we are not equal,' Abraham said. 'We live under a regime where I enjoy freedom under civil law, and where he is governed by military laws.'

"Adra and Abraham made the film to tell the story of #MasaferYatta, a collection of towns in the occupied #WestBank where Adra lives and where Israeli authorities and settlers have been attacking and evicting residents for years—claiming Israel has a right to use the land for a military training facility. The film chronicles Israeli soliders' killing of Adra's brother and their attacks on West Bank communities by demolishing homes, tearing down playgrounds, and filling water wells with cement so Palestinians cannot rebuild."

There were two of us to watch a moment in the lives of various animals brought together by an unspecified series of incidents, and a part of their journey in a familiar, strange world.

Sound design, animal behavior, and details are phenomenal; cat sounds, capybara chill, lemur upright.

I have to say recliners have made the movie going experience infinitely better. They are not distracting from the movie experience at all, assigned seats also make things better. I get the “classic” thing but having seen #TheBrutalist at one of these theaters the seats will break your ass at 3 and a half hours. Add to it that the tickets are almost $10 more than the fancy theaters what the hell am I paying for? If #AlamoDraftHouse has them… #Movies #Theaters
