Afterwards, The Encampments (81', 2025), by Michael T. Workman and Kei Pritsker, will be presented. Protests against government complicity in the massacre in Gaza spread across the United States. On the campus of Columbia University, 50 students initiate one of the most significant student movements in contemporary history when, in April 2024, they occupy university space by organising a resistance camp. The movement is criminalised and the protesters arrested and silenced. The wave of protests does not stop. A ‘live’ testimony, with the voices of the protagonists of the movement, The Encampments is a chronicle of the struggles and sacrifices of a generation in protest.
