(Een film van Hany Abu-Assad, 2013, Palestina)

Omar woont op de Westelijke Jordaanoever. Hij is het gewend om de kogels van de Israëlische soldaten te ontwijken en klimt dagelijks over de muur die hem scheidt van Nadia, waar hij verliefd op is, en van zijn twee jeugdvrienden, Tarek en Amjad. De drie vrienden beslissen om een eigen groepje van gewapend verzet te vormen en gaan over tot actie.
De jonge bakker Omar wordt aldus een vrijheidsstrijder die de pijnlijke keuzes van het leven onder ogen moet zien. Wanneer hij opgesloten wordt na een verzetsdaad botst zijn gevecht op de repressie en manipulatiemethodes van de Israëlische staat.

Mardi 23 décembre à 19H30

Projection
(Un film de Hany Abu-Assad, 2013, Palestine)

Omar vit en Cisjordanie. Habitué à déjouer les balles des soldats israéliens, il franchit quotidiennement le mur qui le sépare de Nadia qu’il aime passionnément et de ses deux amis d’enfance, Tarek et Amjad. Les trois amis ont décidé de créer leur propre groupe de résistance armée et sont prêts à passer à l’action.
Le jeune boulanger Omar devient alors un combattant pour la liberté qui va devoir affronter les choix douloureuses de la vie. Quand Omar est incarcéré suite à une action de résistance, son combat va se heurter aux méthodes de répression et de manipulation de l’Etat israélien.

What a War Crime Looks Like From Space


Satellite Image © 2013 Human Rights Watch 

By Josh Lyons

The tell-tale signs of a devastating attack are obvious – even via satellite.

Satellite images of the remote, gold mining village of Camp Bangui in the Central African Republic show dozens of black “burn scars” – all that is left of more than 200 homes reduced to ashes following a November 10 attack by former Seleka fighters who have been wreaking havoc in the region.

Afghanistan Should Reject Proposal to Restore Stoning  It is absolutely shocking that 12 years after the fall of the Taliban government, the President Hamid Karzai’s administration might bring back stoning as a punishment. Karzai needs to demonstrate at least a basic commitment to human rights and reject this proposal out of hand.  See the Latest News in Asia >> share on:

Dispatches: Smartphones Without Smart Due Diligence By Juliane Kippenberg Every cell phone or computer contains only a small amount of gold, and these sectors consume more than 6 percent of the gold produced globally. But the five biggest smartphone manufacturers on the European market – Samsung, Apple, Research in Motion, Nokia, and HTC – cannot guarantee that they are not using gold mined by children.  See the Latest News in Europe/Central Asia >> share on:

In Egypt, a Deeply Restrictive New Assembly Law  Egypt’s new law on public assembly will greatly restrict peaceful political demonstrations. This law will reverse the freedom to demonstrate that Egyptians seized in January 2011, and risks putting that freedom, which brought about momentous change, into reverse.  See the Latest News in the Middle East/North Africa >> share on:
