For the complete Glocali Festival program, click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Salloum\u2019s film follows Palestinian hip hop, with a focus on DAM, making the connection between the music and the political environment in which it is created. The much acclaimed film has received awards at Sundance; Films de Femmes, France; Beirut International Film Festival; Granada Festival Cine del Sur, Spain and many more.<\/p>\n

From the film\u2019s website: Slingshot Hip Hop braids together the stories of young Palestinians living in Gaza, the West Bank and inside Israel as they discover Hip Hop and employ it as a tool to surmount divisions imposed by occupation and poverty. From internal checkpoints and Separation Walls to gender norms and generational differences, this is the story of young people crossing the borders that separate them.<\/em><\/p>\n

The screening will be followed by a discussion with members of DAM moderated by Nirit Ben Ari. Entrance is FREE.
