The screening of the film "The Intifada That Was Erased 1958" in Nazareth was canceled following a publication on C14. The film, which portrays the Arab rioters who threw stones at police in May 1958 as heroes and describes the riots as a "Palestinian uprising," was scheduled to be screened at the "Cinamana – Culture and Identity" venue last Sunday. Tickets were sold on the production website for 60 shekels, even though the film had not been approved by the Film Review Board. The CEO of B'Tselem, Shay Glick, contacted the police and the Nazareth station demanding the screening be stopped. The Israel Police contacted the Nazareth municipality, and it turned out the venue was operating without a valid business license, and as a result the event was banned. Glick praised the cancellation and said, "Whoever incites to murder Jews, whoever glorifies terrorists, must pay a heavy price."
