Recently, Miami Beach's Mayor Steven Meiner threatened to shut down a local cinema showing the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land, labeling it a propaganda tool against Jews. Local officials condemned the film's perspective on Israel, calling it misleading. This is contrasted by another documentary, October 8, that addresses rising antisemitism in the U.S. following the recent Hamas attacks, which highlights a cultural war over narratives related to Israel and Palestine. The differing reception and controversy surrounding the two films underscore the polarized views on Israel's actions and the representation of scholarly and survivor testimonies.
Last week, the Miami Beach mayor threatened to close a cinema screening a documentary on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, labeling it propaganda against Jews.
City officials criticized the documentary No Other Land for its portrayal of Israel, saying it falsely depicts the nation as the aggressor and supports terrorism.
