Seeds of Liberation
Seeds for Liberation was born out of a deep urgency — not just to document, but to connect. The events of October 7, 2023, became a global flashpoint, but for many, they marked a continuation of a struggle nearly eight decades in the making. As a filmmaker, Director Matthew Solomon wanted to center Palestinian voices while also situating their liberation within a broader legacy of anti-imperialist and decolonial movements — from Black resistance in the U.S. to Chicano activism and beyond. In a world saturated with filtered narratives and state-sponsored erasure, social media has cracked open a window — giving us raw, direct access to the truths on the ground. This film asks: What does solidarity truly look like? And how do our struggles for justice — across geography, race, and history — grow from the same seed?
In this new documentary from Director Matthew Solomon and Executive Producer Donna Hadjikhani of “Reimagining Safety,” joined by Executive Producer Alana Hadid, experts discuss the impact of Palestine’s 77-year occupation by Israeli forces, the role social media has played in mobilizing global support, and provide a roadmap for collective liberation. The film includes impactful and emotional interviews with legal scholars, activists, and members of The Black Liberation Army, La Raza Unida, and the Stop Cop City movement who illustrate the effects of Israeli and U.S. imperialism and colonialism, what “Free Palestine” means, and how it can be achieved.
