RESISTANCE, WHY? (55m) is a recently restored documentary by Christian Ghazi that captures a crucial cross-section of the Palestinian resistance in Lebanon in 1970, including never before seen footage of Ghassan Kanafani. Kanafani and others share their vision of the Palestinian revolution, tracing its history back to the early 20th century. These testimonies describe the numerous strikes and protests that took place in Palestine under the Ottoman occupation, followed by the British colonisation and the settlement of the Jewish state in 1948.
