Naila and the Uprising chronicles the remarkable journey of Naila Ayesh and a fierce community of women at the frontlines, whose stories weave through the most vibrant, nonviolent mobilization in Palestinian history-- the First Intifada in the late 1980s. The film uses animation, interviews, and exclusive archival footage. Khushboo Bhutani, PhD student in Film and Media Studies, will introduce the film.
