The Freedom Film campaign in 2013 was one of The Freedom Theatre\u2019s first ventures into the world of crowd-funding. The support we got more than surpassed our expectations and enabled our young aspiring filmmakers to produce five different films, fiction and documentary, with the common aim of recording the humanity and the truth of the Palestinian situation.<\/p>\n
