Israel Palestine on Swedish Television 1958–1989 (a new film from the makers of The Black Power Mixtape 1967–1975 and Om våld) comprises unique and visually striking footage from perhaps the most comprehensive archive in the world depicting both sides of the conflict: the Swedish Television archives. Challenging and changing the conventions of how history is written, the film demonstrates how one country’s media perceived one of the world’s longest conflicts.
