The University Is Not an Island

Van 28 november tot 28 november 2026

Inleiding

Palestine, Militant Reels and the Student International

Info

After tents and chants recede, images remain. Moving between classrooms, camps, factories, and occupied campuses, this three-day programme brings together films from the 1950s to the present, tracing how education, student organising and internationalist solidarity have shaped struggles for liberation. Palestine runs through these histories, connecting movements across borders and generations. These images carry memory, preserve unfinished questions and reopen political possibilities at a time when student assemblies gather and streets fill again. As genocide continues in Gaza amid widening global repression and criminalisation, The University Is Not an Island asks what these films remember and what they might set in motion.
