Palestine Film Series 6:30pm
Franklin County for Palestine is hosting a 5-film Palestine Film Series. The second film, Farha (2021), is presented at the Bent Northrop Memorial Library, Fairfax, VT on August 25, at 6:30 pm.
Synopsis: In Palestine 1948, FARHA (14 years old) lives in a village where girls her age are traditionally married, yet she dreams of continuing her education in the city with her best friend Farida. As she gets closer to her dream, the looming danger of Nakba events reaches her village and Farha is brutally separated from Farida. Terrorized for his daughter’s safety, Farha’s father locks her up in a concealed, small storage room, promising to return. But he never does. Buried in the tight dark space, Farha’s only connection to the outside world is a small hole in the wall and a few cracks in the wooden door. What she witnesses inside and outside of the room forces a new path for Farha as her life-changing journey begins.
