 Subject: International Video Festival in Ramallah, Palestine

 Dear friends,

 I am curating a video art festival of International artists to be held
 in
 Ramallah this Fall.

 There will be no official theater location. Rather, the festival will
 take
 place within the homes of the people in Ramallah. People will take the
 videos home and watch them and then when the curfew is lifted, will
 pass
 the video on to the next person,etc. In this way, everyone will have
 access to the videos and they will be able to be shown around the
 city.

 Unfortunately, we can not guarantee the safe return of your video. If
 your
 video is in a house, and Israeli soldiers enter the house, it will
 more
 then likely be destroyed.

 We welcome all subject matter EXCEPT anything about the Palestinian/
 Israeli conflict. The video system there is PAL.

 Please contact me at: emilyvideo2002@yahoo.com
 if you would like to submit your video.

 Best,
 Emily
