Winter 2024/2025

No Other Land is both narratively explosive and achingly personal. In terms of craft, it’s one of the most impressive examples of verité scene-making in recent years—though its directors, a collective of four Israeli and Palestinian journalists, aren’t format purists in their story of how Israeli state legal machinations and individual soldiers force expulsions of Palestinian villagers in the West Bank. Mackenzie Lukenbill examines how the quartet of Basel Adra, Yuval Abraham, Hamdan Billal, and Rachel Szor made the film their story in every mutual way possible. After No Other Land was selected for this issue’s cover feature, IDA’s board selected the film’s directors to receive the Courage Under Fire Award at the 40th IDA Documentary Awards. Articles featured in the print version will be published online November 2024–February 2025.

For Here or To Go?

FOR HERE OR TO GO? is an eight-episode documentary series that celebrates one of the staples of American cuisine. Inspired by artist-activist Curtis Chin’s award-winning memoir, the in-depth project will cover the often-unknown and overlooked stories, history, and socio-political roots of Chinese restaurants in the US and their implications for the future of Asian American communities, immigration policy, and broader civil society.
