pleased to present “Ten Days in
Gaza.”
This documentary chronicles
the dramatic Israeli disengage
ment from the Gaza Strip last
summer.
On the 15th of August 2005,
Israel embarked on a journey that
changed it geographically, politi
cally and historically.
Though lasting only ten days,
Israel’s disengagement from the
Jewish settlements in the Gaza
Strip and the northern West Bank
marked a watershed event in the
country’s history.
“Ten Days in Gaza” begins
with the military closure of the
Gaza Strip to civilian traffic, con
tinues with the morning when the
evacuation forces marched into
the 21 settlements, and ends with
the last soldier that closed the
Gaza’s gates behind him, ending
38 years of Israeli residency.
Join us on Sunday, March 12 at
7 PM in Lemer Hall for a viewing
of the film and a dynamic discus
sion of the disengagement as
experienced first hand by the
film’s production crew.
