Maaloul Celebrates Its Destruction (1985)

Özet

Ma’loul is a Palestinian village in Galilee. In 1948, it was destroyed by the Israeli armed forces, and its inhabitants were forced to flee either to Lebanon or neighboring Nazareth. Ever since, former Ma’loul residents are only allowed to visit it once a year, on the anniversary of the occupation. That is how a picnic on this day, on the site of the destroyed village, became a tradition.
