Overview

Os Mortos Resistirão Para Sempre is a powerful cinematic poem that confronts the ongoing Palestinian tragedy through a bold and ambitious comparative lens. The film weaves together rare Brazilian archival footage from 1922 and 1932 documenting the catastrophe of indigenous peoples, with contemporary documentaries from 2023 and 2024, essays by filmmakers Jean-Luc Godard, Hani Jawharieh, and Mustafa Abu Ali, statements by intellectuals Edgar Morin and Noam Chomsky, and an enduring poem by Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwich. The result is a defiant act of cinematic memory that draws parallels between histories of dispossession, insisting that the dead resist through art and that bearing witness is itself a form of survival.
