You can now watch ‘No Other Land’

“No Other Land” is the Academy Award winning movie that documents the misery and injustices of the life, and deaths, of Palestinians under the oppressive rule of the Israeli government and ongoing attacks by Israeli settlers from nearby illegal settlements. Because no U.S. distributor had the courage to show the movie, people in this country have not been able to see it, until now.

We made No Other Land to create actual change on the ground. Now, we need your help to achieve it. No Other Land isn’t just a film — it’s our lives.

Hi! We’re the creators of No Other Land, the Oscar-winning film about the communities of Masafer Yatta that are being forcibly displaced by the Israeli army and settlers.

For the next three weeks, we are making the film available online in North America as part of an effort to raise support for Masafer Yatta because our community is still being destroyed and we urgently need your help.

All profits from renting the movie will go directly to support Masafer Yatta communities!

If you already watched our film, you can donate any amount you like to the villages of Masafer Yatta. 

Masafer Yatta is still being erased and the daily violence continues. Hamdan Ballal, co-director of the film, was recently brutally assaulted by settlers. Similar settler pogroms have been carried out in other villages, alongside the constant presence of Israeli soldiers and threat of home demolitions.

Basil Adra, co-director of the film, has a vision to establish a center to support community resilience and empowerment. At the core of this initiative will be youth education programs that support the next generation of storytellers and ambassadors of the region. The center will also support women’s empowerment efforts, food sovereignty projects, and psychological support for the communities. Donate below to be a part of making this vision a reality. We are grateful for your support and excited to update you as we launch this effort.

Your support will also go toward the many emergency and immediate needs that arise everyday from state-settler violence. From a bail fund for the many arbitrary arrests carried out daily, medical expenses incurred after attacks, and costs to repair or replace damaged or stolen property, there are many immediate needs that your support will help respond to. These funds will be distributed in coordination with a committee of Palestinian community leaders in Masafer Yatta.

We made No Other Land to create actual change on the ground. Now, we need your help to achieve it. No Other Land isn’t just a film — it’s our lives. Join us to fight to save Masafer Yatta and help us build a network of 50,000 supporters standing in solidarity with Masafer Yatta.
