TIFF caved under Zionist pressure and reinstated an Israeli propaganda film, “THE ROAD BETWEEN US”, after briefly pulling it from the lineup. This documentary whitewashes the record of a retired IDF general complicit in war crimes and launders the image of the same military carrying out a live-streamed genocide in Gaza! Why it matters? By hosting this film, TIFF isn’t neutral — it’s actively aiding Israel’s artwashing machine. Art should be a tool for confronting oppression, not excusing it. Film festivals should be sanctuaries of integrity, not billboards for apartheid & genocide. Take action! Join our email campaign calling on TIFF to end its complicity in Israel’s genocide, and support our four key demands: Immediately pull “THE ROAD BETWEEN US” from the lineup, as well as any other films tied to the Israeli state or individuals endorsing genocide Adopt the Palestinian Academic & Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI) guidelines, and institute programming policies that reject works linked to state violence or actors complicit in war crimes Engage in a meaningful dialogue with the Palestine solidarity community—including filmmakers and cultural workers—to address the harms caused by programming decisions, co-develop solutions & prevent future harm Establish transparent policies and accountability measures to protect against anti-Palestinian racism and guarantee that bias & donor influence don’t silence Palestinian, Indigenous, or principled filmmakers https://actionnetwork.org/letters/confronting-tiffs-complicity-in-artwashing-israels-genocide
