Storm in Jerusalem: A 'Palestinian' cinema with municipal funding?

The 'On the Seam' museum in Jerusalem will host a film screening as part of a Palestinian cinema event, amid the ongoing war.

The municipality denies direct funding for the event.

During wartime, the 'On the Seam' museum in Jerusalem will host a film screening as part of an event dedicated to Palestinian cinema. The building is funded by the Jerusalem Municipality, and simultaneously, a demand has been revealed to evict the museum from the municipal building. The CEO of the 'Betzalmo' organization, Shai Glick, sent a letter to Mayor Moshe Lion, claiming that the allocation has expired and that the museum is violating its terms by holding events against IDF soldiers. The municipality's response denies the existence of a Palestinian festival and states that it does not fund the specific event.
