Spaces of Exception is a documentary film that profiles the terrains of the Indian reservation and the Palestinian refugee camp, “spa ces of exception” that have become essential in the struggle for decoloniz ation and indigenous autonomy. Shot between 2014 to 2017, Spaces of Except ion observes and juxtaposes the communities and struggles of the American Indian reservation and the Palestinian refugee camp. It visits reservation s in Arizona, New Mexico, New York, and South Dakota, as well camps in Leb anon and the West Bank, “places defined by their historical and spiritual resistance” in order to “understand the conditions for life, community, an d sovereignty.” While the histories are distinct, dispossession and loss u nite these communities in solidarity, and the alternating stories highligh t both their unique tragedies and their revolutionary commonalities. Mostl y eschewing archival footage, Spaces of Exception showcases the present, i n which each day lived is itself an act of resistance.

The project has resulted in more than a dozen short films, a book, radio program, writings and numerous lectures and workshops.
