Film // Divine Intervention (92 min, 2002) by Elia Suleiman – 27. mai

This acclaimed 2002 comedy defies conventional filmmaking with its sharp wit, biting satire, and poetic visuals. It is a poignant and absurdly humorous exploration of life under occupation, blending the personal with the political in ways both surreal and strikingly human. Set in Nazareth and Ramallah, Divine Interventionoffers a poetic and satirical lens on the Palestinian experience, capturing moments of love, tension, and the absurdity of borders—both literal and emotional. With its razor-sharp wit and profound visuals, it has been compared to the comedies of Jacques Tati and Buster Keaton.
