Documentary Showcase: "Who Killed Alex Odeh?" + "7:60"
About this Event
Join us for this special screening followed by a Q&A.
7:60:
Country of Origin: Netherlands
Language: English
Logline: In 2002, Mohamedou Ould Slahi was taken to Guantánamo Bay. He was held for fourteen years. He was never charged with a crime. 7:60 — its title drawn from the Qur’anic verse in which a prophet is accused of plain error — sits with Slahi in the years after his release. Across four movements — The Arrest, The Confession, The Release, In Plain Error — the film traces not the machinery of his detention, but the interior architecture that survived it: faith, patience, and a refusal to answer cruelty in kind. A portrait of what captivity could not reach.
Who Killed Alex Odeh?:
Country of Origin: USA
Language: English/Arabic/Hebrew
Logline: On October 11, 1985, a bomb killed Palestinian-American activist Alex Odeh at his Southern California office. More than forty years later, no one has been brought to justice — not because the evidence was lacking, but because the answers were never pursued.
