   It is fantastic. I had the good fortune to meet him at a showing of the film in Frankfurt and he is the nicest man. Hany Abu Assad is a wonderful spokesperson. After the film he took questions from the audience. There were the usual virulent Zionists asking questions totally unrelated to the film; he fielded them and maintained his cool, and he made his points well. We are very fortunate to have such an articulate and principled advocate. And let’s hope that the US public will wake up! If you would like to read some of his answers to the audience’s questions I wrote it up here:http://umkahlil.blogspot.com/2005/05/paradise-now-premieres-in-frankfurt.html and also here’s a great write up about Palestinians in Ramallah’s reactions: http://www.worldpress.org/print_article.cfm?article_id=2185&dont=yes

   I havent watched the movie, which makes me curious what this beholds for it to be Oscar nominated ,especially it being a Palestinian one. Seems it serves some purposes
