Watch Stolen Freedom: Occupied Palestine For Free
Stolen Freedom: Occupied Palestine
During the first Palestinian Intifada, or uprising, that began in December 1987, Palestinian-American filmmaker Tony Kandah made the documentary "Stolen Freedom" about occupied Palestine and the Intifada. Filmed primarily in Dahatia, a refugee camp run by UNRWA near Bethlehem on the West Bank, the film shows a new side to this continuing saga; the story of children growing up and learning to survive in an atmosphere of daily tension. In eye-opening interviews, the young people explain what it means to live in a strife-torn environment and how they have managed to survive and remain hopeful. Narrated by Casey Kasem, well-known in the USA for his "Top 40" music program, and featuring commentary by Hanan Ashrawi.

Reviews
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
