Bisan (2024)

Origin: Palestine | Documentary | Director: Yusuf Omar | 40 minutes

Join us for a world premiere screening of Bisan, a Seen Palestine documentary that tells the story of one of the world’s most courageous journalists, Bisan Owda from Gaza.

When hundreds of Palestinian journalists have either been killed by Israeli missiles, or forced to flee Gaza for their lives, Bisan stayed behind. She exposes the horrors of a plausible genocide to the world.

Her fearless reporting has shed light on a year of intense violence and a lifetime of occupation. Bisan’s previous extraordinary work earned her an Emmy, and now her story is brought to the screen in this vital new documentary.

Through Bisan, you’ll witness the resilience, determination, and strength it takes to survive and report from the heart of Gaza.

This screening is not just a film—it’s a call to recognize the truth amidst a media blackout. At a time when Israel still don’t allow foreign journalists into Gaza.
