Shalal. A Reel War
Directed by Karnit Mandel2021 55m
In 1982, The Israeli army invaded Beirut. A film archive of the PLO's filming unit, containing hundreds of hours of raw materials, disappeared. "SHALAL" is a story of a lost Palestinian film archive, delving into three historical events captured in the footage. It is the story of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict-from a new viewpoint. The real war is a reel war, fought not with firepower but with access to historical records and visual archives.
