Year 1936. As villages across Palestine rise against British colonial rule, Yusuf drifts between his rural home and the restless energy of Jerusalem, longing for a future beyond the growing unrest. But history is relentless. With rising numbers of Jewish immigrants escaping antisemitism in Europe and some arriving with nefarious Zionist-colonial ambitions, and the Palestinian population uniting in the largest and longest uprising against Britain’s 30-year dominion, all sides spiral towards inevitable collision in a decisive moment for the British Empire and the future of the entire region.
Palestine 36 is a Drama, History, War film released in 2025.

Movie Dialogue Sample
Well, I...
240
00:34:58,875 --> 00:35:00,500
Tell us about the countryside.
241
00:35:05,041 --> 00:35:06,708
We are losing land daily.
242
00:35:08,041 --> 00:35:11,458
Many farmers have been evicted
from their lands
243
00:35:11,583 --> 00:35:13,750
farmers who worked hard in these lands.
244
00:35:13,875 --> 00:35:15,083
And settlers have taken over.
245
00:35:15,208 --> 00:35:17,291
I understand
it's a difficult time for you all,
246
00:35:17,416 --> 00:35:20,333
but not all villagers pay their debts
to the landowners.
247
00:35:20,458 --> 00:35:22,250
- Wouldn't you agree?
- Right.
248
00:35:22,375 --> 00:35:25,625
People can barely feed their families
these days,
249
00:35:25,750 --> 00:35:29,583
let alone pay debts,
while Zionists are taking our lands.
250
00:35:29,708 --> 00:35:31,708
We must remember that it is we,
the landowners
251
00:35:31,833 --> 00:35:33,666
who own the majority of the land.
252
00:35:33,791 --> 00:35:36,541
And pay the taxes, too.
253
00:35:36,666 --> 00:35:38,708
Thank you, Yusuf.
Have a seat.
254
00:35:39,375 --> 00:35:41,000
I propose we move on.
255
00:35:41,125 --> 00:35:45,500
As you've all heard,
the French and Belgian ambassadors...
256
00:35:57,833 --> 00:35:59,416
No, no!
257
00:36:02,750 --> 00:36:04,875
Yusuf! Yusuf!
258
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:06,750
Afra. Dear...
259
00:36:07,875 --> 00:36:09,291
We need water.
260
00:36:15,625 --> 00:36:17,541
The rebels sabotaged a patrol.
261
00:36:17,666 --> 00:36:20,000
Despite the threats,
we refused to speak.
262
00:36:55,041 --> 00:36:56,333
Your turn soon, Afra.
263
00:37:02,166 --> 00:37:03,458
Pass it to her.
264
00:37:04,041 --> 00:37:05,500
Drink.
265
00:37:09,833 --> 00:37:11,750
Yusuf!
266
00:38:04,875 --> 00:38:06,375
How are you?
267
00:38:07,958 --> 00:38:10,125
Yusuf Bassawi.
268
00:38:11,416 --> 00:38:13,208
Welcome.
269
00:38:18,916 --> 00:38:20,875
Each village gets ammunition
for protection.
270
00:38:23,166 --> 00:38:25,000
We are fighting for our people.
271
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,208
Our duty is to serve and fight
for a free nation.
272
00:38:31,333 --> 00:38:34,083
We defend civilians at all costs.
Understand?
273
00:38:58,833 --> 00:39:00,250
Puppet Kings?
274
00:39:00,375 --> 00:39:01,916
Puppet Kings, Khuloud?
275
00:39:02,041 --> 00:39:03,625
You can't publish this!
276
00:39:03,750 --> 00:39:05,666
It's the truth.
277
00:39:05,791 --> 00:39:07,416
It sounds atrocious.
278
00:39:07,541 --> 00:39:10,083
Unfortunately,
I didn't pen that description myself.
279
00:39:12,583 --> 00:39:14,166
- Let's be logical.
- Logical?
280
00:39:14,750 --> 00:39:18,916
Accepting British requests
to intervene in ending our strike?
281
00:39:19,041 --> 00:39:21,958
The longest strike in history,
I should add.
282
00:39:22,083 --> 00:39:24,059
They're scared the rebellion
will spread to their countries
283
00:39:24,083 --> 00:39:25,916
and knock them off their thrones.
284
00:39:26,041 --> 00:39:28,250
And our National Committee is different?
285
00:39:28,375 --> 00:39:30,517
Endorsing the General Strike,
who do they think they are?
286
00:39:30,541 --> 00:39:32,958
Who do they think they are?
287
00:39:35,125 --> 00:39:37,291
The leaders of all five Palestinian parties
288
00:39:37,416 --> 00:39:40,708
who represent all our voices
are united and called for the Strike.
289
00:39:40,833 --> 00:39:42,583
We Arabs are shooting ourselves
in the foot.
290
00:39:42,708 --> 00:39:45,875
Some of us feel the National Committee
does not represent our best interests.
291
00:39:50,791 --> 00:39:52,583
Like your Muslim Association?
292
00:39:53,916 --> 00:39:57,041
Isn't unification of all parties
more tactical?
293
00:39:58,750 --> 00:40:00,166
Khuloud.
294
00:40:01,958 --> 00:40:03,000
My love.
295
00:40:03,125 --> 00:40:05,750
I adore you even if we never agree
on anything.
296
00:40:17,875 --> 00:40:20,625
- Our lands are ours.
- Our lands are ours.
297
00:40:20,750 --> 00:40:24,375
- Palestine is not for sale.
- Palestine is not for sale!
298
00:40:24,500 --> 00:40:27,833
- Palestine is not for sale.
- Palestine is not for sale!
299
00:40:27,958 --> 00:40:29,541
Palestine was not Balfour's to give.
300
00:40:29,666 --> 00:40:31,458
Palestine was not Balfour's to give!
301
00:41:10,083 --> 00:41:12,875
- Palestine is not for sale.
- Palestine is not for sale!
302
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,208
- Palestine was not Balfour's to give.
- Palestine was not Balfour's to give!
303
00:41:16,333 --> 00:41:17,791
Our lands are ours.
304
00:41:17,916 --> 00:41:19,666
Our lands are ours!
305
00:41:19,791 --> 00:41:22,875
- Palestine is not for sale.
- Palestine is not for sale!
306
00:43:04,250 --> 00:43:08,208
CURFEW RULES
307
00:44:08,875 --> 00:44:10,833
- Here you go.
- Thank you.
308
