“Made by a breakaway faction of the U.S. Newsreel collective Pacific Newsreel, 'Revolution Until Victory' edits exclusively archival footage into a detailed, historical reconstruction of the conflict. Great attention is paid to the political genesis of Zionism, the role of colonial Britain in assigning [sic] Palestine to zionists and the strategic role Israel has played ever since in the control and monopoly of the world’s most sought-after commodity, oil.” –Celluloid Liberation Front, SIGHT & SOUND

"With a combination of Hollywood, European, and Israeli film; documentary; news coverage; and excerpts of ‘live’ footage shot in the West Bank and Gaza strip, 'Introduction to the End of an Argument' critiques representations of the Middle East, Arab culture, and the Palestinian people produced by the West. The video mimics the dominant media’s forms of representation, subverting its methodology and construction. A process of displacement and deconstruction is enacted attempting to arrest the imagery and ideology, decolonizing and recontextualizing it to provide a space for a marginalized voice consistently denied expression in the media.” –Video Data Bank
