An evening in Bangkok offers space for reflection and solidarity with Palestinian communities through a screening of Al Awda. The 72-minute film follows 22 activists who set sail towards Gaza on a modest fishing boat, committed to non violence as they attempt to challenge the blockade. What begins as a gesture of peace soon meets the reality of confrontation with Israeli military forces in international waters, and the camera stays close to the human stakes. After the screening, filmmaker Jason Soo joins a 30- to 40-minute discussion, opening the floor to questions and shared thoughts. The film is presented in English with English subtitles.
