What it is

Who killed Palestinian-American activist Alex Odeh in 1985, and why has nobody been held accountable? A gripping investigation into political violence, memory and justice denied. Followed by a Q&A.

An event held at Arnolfini on Saturday 28th November. The event starts at 15:30.

In 1985, Palestinian-American teacher, poet and civil-rights activist Alex Odeh was murdered by a bomb planted at his California office. Forty years later, nobody has been held accountable.

Combining archival material, original reporting and the testimony of those closest to the case, this investigative documentary revisits a devastating political assassination and asks why justice has remained elusive. What begins as a murder investigation becomes an examination of political extremism, impunity and the silencing of Palestinian voices in America.
