(The Encampments)
The protest movement subsequently spread to dozens of universities worldwide. In the eyes of the establishment, the entire event was reduced to the actions of radical students supporting Hamas, terrorism, and anti-Semitism. Filmed directly from the heart of the protests, the documentary describes the intense struggle for the human rights of Palestinian civilians who have become victims of war. By this act, the protesters themselves risked their own futures, facing unconditional expulsion from the university.
