New US Trailer for 'Palestine 36' Historical Drama with Jeremy Irons

"I don't want to fight." "None of us do." Watermelon Pictures has unveiled their own full US trailer for the acclaimed film Palestine 36, made by Palestinian filmmaker Annemarie Jacir as her fourth feature. This is Palestine's submission to the Oscars this year and it will open in January. This first premiered at the 2025 Toronto Film Festival last month, and it next plays at AFI Fest and the Denver Film Festival. The film is set during the years 1936 - 1939 following a man going between Jerusalem and his rural home amid escalating unrest with the British Empire rulers at the time. This is just before the Holocaust and the British Mandate in 1947 & 1948 that would lead to the creation of the State of Israel after 1945. Back in 1936, as Palestinian villages revolt against British colonial rule, Yusuf navigates between Jerusalem and his home during unrest and a pivotal moment for the British Empire just before the start of World War II. The historical drama stars Hiam Abbass, Saleh Bakri, Robert Aramayo, Billy Howle, Liam Cunningham, Yasmine Al-Massri, Dafer L'Abidine, Yumna Marwan, Karim Daoud Anaya, & Jeremy Irons as Commissioner Wauchope. This is a better trailer than the other one we posted recently. I really want to see it! Take a look. // Continue Reading ›
