At a glance

Canada Park, is a 2020 Palestinian movie, directed by Razan AlSalah. with a runtime of 9 minutes.

Overview

Canada Park is a provocative techno-meditation that repurposes Google Maps satellite imagery, Wikipedia entries, and early twentieth-century colonial landscape photography as raw material for a critical inquiry into the status of Palestine and the concept of the Holy Land. By layering these digital and archival sources, the film interrogates how geography is represented, contested, and erased — and how contemporary mapping technologies both reflect and perpetuate historical narratives. A rigorous and visually arresting essay film that asks urgent questions about land, memory, and the politics of the image in the digital age.
