Presented by Forensic Architecture’s founding director and principal investigator Eyal Weizman, this interactive lecture builds off Forensic Architecture’s The Long Duration of a Split Second, which was nominated for the Turner Prize in 2018.
This ongoing project stems from a raid which occurred in the village of Umm al-Hiran in the northern Negev desert, shortly before dawn on 18 January 2017. During the raid, two people were killed: a villager, Yaqub Musa Abu alQi’an, and a policeman, Erez Levi. Israeli officials claimed Levi’s death was the result of a ‘terrorist attack’. However, local residents and activists told a different story.
This event is part of London Palestine Film Festival.
