KINDLY SUPPORTED BY THE PALESTINE SOLIDARITY CAMPAIGN.
Daybreak in Gaza weaves together four thousand years of this extraordinary place and people, showcasing the illustrious achievements of the past with insights from Gazans today. Vignettes of artists, acrobats, chefs, shopkeepers and medics tell stories of life, love, displacement and survival, rubbing shoulders with vivid accounts of the warriors and travellers of old. Daybreak in Gaza humanises the people dismissed as mere statistics and ‘collateral damage’, showing Gazans as artists and storytellers living lives full of culture and meaning.
Mahmoud and Matthew will discuss the heritage that has been lost, and that which can never be lost, revealing the wealth of Gaza’s cultural landscape and the depth of its history.
