'Spaces for Dialogue' is a series of discussion sessions where films and documentaries are picked to instigate meaningful conversations to process the humanitarian crises in the world over, and in specific the genocide in Gaza. The sessions here include-

1. Settlers by Louis Theroux
Date: 19th of November (Wednesday)
Time: 6:30 pm - 8:30pm
Fourteen years after his first visit, Louis Theroux meets some of the growing community of religious-nationalist Israelis who have settled in the occupied West Bank. Louis shows that the settlers are already making plans to move into Gaza (Palestine) too. The session will have a moderated discussion to reflect on the film.


2. Stitching Palestine by Carol Mansour 
Date: 26th of November, 2025 (Wednesday)
Time: 6:30pm-8:30pm
The film sees twelve Palestinian women talk of their life before the Diaspora; of their memories, of their lives and of their identity. Their narratives are connected by the enduring thread of the ancient art of embroidery. We are joined for discussion by Rida, an artist from Hong Kong who reflects on her experience of painting a mural to Palestine in South Africa.
