FRONTIERS OF DREAMS AND FEARS
A film by Mai Masri
Bluestockings Bookstore,
172 Allen Street (bt Stanton and Rivington)
Suggested donation: $5
The film follows two Palestinian girls, Manar from Dheisheh refugee camp in Bethlehem, and Mona from Shatila refugee camp in Lebanon. The film reveals the problems of their daily lives as refugees, as well as their dreams and their growing relationship, at first through e-mail, then culminating in their dramatic meeting at the fence that separates them at the Lebanese/Israeli border.
Join Manar for questions and discussion after the film. She is now 19 and
studying in North Carolina.
