US-based streaming service Netflix launched a new Palestinian film
collection on Thursday, Reuters reported.

The collection, titled ‘Palestinian Stories’, consists in 32 films
that are “either helmed by Palestinian filmmakers or about
Palestinian stories,” Netflix said in a statement released on
Tuesday. 

“Featuring the works of prolific and critically-acclaimed directors
like Annemarie Jacir, Mai Masri, Mahdi Fleifel, Susan Youssef, May
Odeh, Farah Nabulsi and many more, the collection is a tribute to the
creativity and passion of the Arab film industry as Netflix continues
to invest in stories from the Arab world,” the statement reads.

The collection includes award-winning titles, such as ‘The
Crossing’, directed by May Odeh, who expressed her satisfaction with
Netflix’s choice to make “alternative Palestinian films accessible
to wide audiences”.

“The diversification of our content sits close to my heart as
Netflix works to become the home of Arabic cinema,” Nuha el-Tayeb, a
spokesperson for Netflix, told Reuters.
