Divine Intervention

(90 mins) Heralded by critics from the New York Times, Washington Post, and Time Magazine as “One of the top ten films of the year,” “Blissfully surreal, a one-or-a-kind experience,” and winner of the Jury Prize at the Chicago International Film Festival and the Fipresci Prize at Cannes, Suleiman’s critically-acclaimed satire chronicles the absurdities of life and love on both sides of the Palestinian-Israeli border. Like his Chronicle of a Disappearance Suleiman mixes tragic comedy and deadpan irony to explore the contemporary lives and realities of Palestinians in both Israel and the Palestinian Territories.
