MISSOULA! Please join us on July 21st for a FREE screening of Annemarie Jacir's groundbreaking new film, Palestine 36.

Synopsis: In 1936, as the British Empire tightens its grip on Palestine, Yusuf is caught between his village home and his work in Jerusalem. Amidst an anti-colonial revolt, and Jewish refugees fleeing persecution from Europe, all sides converge in a decisive moment for the entire region.
