Rami Younis, Sarah Ema Friedland | Palestine, UK, USA, 2023 | 78 min
Quebec premiere
Lyd by Rami Younis & Sarah Ema Friedland, is a speculative documentary that follows the rise and fall of Lyd – a 5,000-year-old metropolis that was once a bustling Palestinian town until it was taken over when the State of Israel was established in 1948 and was renamed Lod. Lyd dares to ask the question: what would the city be like had the Israeli occupation of Lyd never happened?
