People have exploded with criticism of Netflix after it announced that 19 films related to Palestine would be removed from the platform.
Freedom Forward, a human rights organization in San Francisco, published an open letter as well as a petition, demanding an explanation from Netflix as to why these films are not on the platform.
According to Deadline, these films were licensed by Front Row Filmed Entertainment, a production company in Dubai. In a statement, the broadcaster said the 'Palestinian Stories' collection was launched in October 2021 as part of a three-year license agreement.
“We launched this licensed collection of films in 2021 for three years. These licenses have now expired. As always, we continue to invest in a wide range of quality films and TV shows to meet the needs of our members and support voices from around the world.”
