The village under the forest
Where greening is an act of obliteration [11.06.2013]
Unfolding as a personal meditation from the Jewish Diaspora,
The Village Under The Forest explores the hidden remains of
the destroyed Palestinian village of Lubya, which lies under
a purposefully cultivated forest plantation called South Africa Forest.
Using the forest and the village ruins as metaphors, the documentary explores themes related to the erasure and persistence of memory and dares to imagine a future in which dignity, acknowledgement and co-habitation become shared possibilities in Israel/Palestine.
