Farha
Film
Event organiser:
Leeds Palestinian Film Festival
Farha is a dramatised historical account of a 14-year-old Palestinian girl who lives through the 1948 Nakba (catastrophe) that led to the displacement of 750,000 Palestinian citizens and deaths of 15,000 more.
The film centres on Farha’s experiences when she is locked in a storage room by her father, as Israeli soldiers attack her village. It is a powerful and provocative coming-of-age journey of a young girl whose innocence is destroyed by the violence she witnesses
