The Urgent Call of Palestine
Directed by Ismail Shammout
Ismail Shammout, an artist who is primarily known for his paintings, also served as director of the Cultural Arts Section of the PLO and worked with the organization’s Film Unit in the 1970s. In this short film, Shammout records a solidarity song by the Egyptian singer Zeinab Shaath to announce the most urgent call of 'Palestine'. The song and the words of Kamal Nasser that break through the ballad continue to hold striking relevance today. Lyrics by Lalitha Punjabi.
