Palestine Comedy Club

Palestine Comedy Club

Palestine Comedy Club follows six Palestinian comedians as they embark on an impossible stand-up tour across occupied Palestine, using comedy to connect communities divided by walls and destruction.

From Ramallah to Haifa, their journey is marked by checkpoints, risk, and raw, defiant humour. When they arrive to perform in London on 7 October 2023, as war breaks out at home, their mission is thrown into crisis.

This is a story of resistance through laughter, intimate, political, and urgently human.

The documentary premiered at SXSW London this year and won the Raindance Spirit Award.
