CINSSU x Film Students 4 Palestine

🇵🇸 Divine Intervention (2002)

Is it possible to find love at a checkpoint? Between Nazareth and Jerusalem is the Al-Ram checkpoint, where Divine Intervention follows a Palestinian couple separated by both imaginary and physical borders. Told through Elia Suleiman’s signature surreal, deadpan style, the film gives us a portrait of daily life in occupied Palestine and the challenges facing Palestinian lovers with different citizenship statuses. Join and for a screening of one of contemporary cinema’s most singular and subversive films.

🫒 Light bites and refreshments will be provided!

EVENT DETAILS:
📅 Date: Thursday, April 30 @ 7:00 PM
📍 Location: Innis Town Hall, 2 Sussex Avenue

This screening is FREE of charge. Early arrival and RSVP through link in bio is recommended but not mandatory!

‼️ GIVEAWAY ‼️

We've partnered with .edge.movies to give away a double pass for you to see $POSITIONS at its Toronto Premiere with the Director in attendance for a Q&A!

Synopsis: Blue-collar Midwesterner Mike Alvarado attempts to save his family from the throes of poverty by investing their savings into speculative cryptocurrencies. However, as his investment strategy decays into a full-blown gambling addiction, he sends his life into a nightmarish anxiety-inducing downward spiral, compromising his relationships with his girlfriend, his developmentally disabled brother, and his recovering addict cousin. A twitchy, hyper-contemporary comedy with equal doses of laughs and panic attacks.
