I spoke to Lydia (research/advocacy officer at the UNESCO Chair of Human Rights and Democracy) and
Beesan (student and volunteer at the UNESCO Chair) both involved in the planning of the film festival.
It was his first full live gig in three years and before the show at the Roundhouse in Camden, North London, he had supposedly
beesan shaking with nerves.
No matter how hard Israel tries to show that it is winning the war against Hizbullah, the latter manages to refute Israel's claims by lobbing rockets into Israel at will and at ever increasing distances--the latest having reached
Beesan, 70 km from the Lebanese-Israeli borders.
