Retro Palestine

Save the date!
The PFFA has joined forces with Ventilator Cinema for a special monthly celebration of Palestinian Cinema, accompanied by a souk (bazaar) with amazing vendors, and Palestinian vegan snacks by Culture Grub.
Once a month, we will dig deep into the PFFA 10 year archive of 77 films and present a surprise “sneak retro” screening with a special guest. The after-talks will range from live interviews to Zoom Q&As with directors based in Palestine.

Your ticket will provide you with a monthly mini PFFA festival!

Who We Are

Stichting Palestinian Film Festival Amsterdam was born from a grassroots initiative with a commitment to centre Palestinian voices on a vibrant platform. Since 2015, the PFFA’s mission is to amplify the cinematographic storytelling and artistry of both emerging and veteran Palestinian directors.
Approaching its tenth year and fifth edition, our dedication to preserve the only Palestinian film festival in the Benelux is stronger than ever. Alongside a diversity of films, featuring experimental shorts, drama features, documentaries and animations, the 2025 PFFA will continue highlighting Dissident Voices, with a special focus on talks and fringe events that reflect the current context that we find ourselves in.
