Headfirst Editor's Pick

A event held at The Cube on Sunday 5th October. The event starts at 13:00.
Terrible things are happening in Palestine, but the newspapers and TV don’t tell us the truth. Even social media is censored. In the streets, in education, on stage and screen, speaking out is not allowed. People face dawn raids, arrest, detention. Dissent has been criminalised.
Veteran film director Ken Loach describes how our mass media is being manipulated. The BBC, he says, is an arm of the state.
Students tell of brutal treatment at the hands of the police for daring to protest.
Women speak out against the outrageous imprisonment of their daughters for taking action to stop drones killing innocent people. Idealistic protesters are being branded terrorists.
Horrifying pictures show the war crimes being committed which our TV and newspapers won’t report.
Even the most peaceful demonstrations against the genocides come under fire as the police crack down on a national march and make multiple arrests including one of the organisers.
With powerful testimony from those who have been silenced, the film tells the story of the most outrageous attack on freedom of speech in modern times — a concerted establishment effort to hide a genocide.
With Ken Loach • Alexei Sayle • Jackie Walker • Roger Waters • Sarah Wilkinson • Peter Oborne • Ben Jamal • Lindsey German and many more.
Entry requirements: 18+
