From Palestine Film Institute:
Twenty years after his death, renowned Palestinian-American scholar, musician, and intellectual Edward Said shares the untold history of Palestine in his own words through sweeping never-before-shared footage and recordings. Tracing the evolution of his political awakening, his personal struggles, and his reckoning with a life of exile, this is the first documentary to be granted full access by the Said Family and estate. Through a kinetic assemblage of archive featuring never-before-seen material from the family archive, the Said archive at Columbia University, decades of unseen home movies, rare television appearances, documentaries, and lectures the film spans seven decades from Said’s childhood in Jerusalem in 1935 to his untimely death in 2003 in NYC. Twenty years after his death, Said invites audiences to ask the question of who exactly has the right to tell their own story.
