The Netherlands officially abolished slavery across its colonies on 1 July 1863. Yet in Sumatra’s plantation belt, Dutch authorities created a legal structure that granted plantation owners sweeping control over racialized migrant workers. Through the Coolie Ordinance and Penal Sanction, labourers could be imprisoned, fined, or subjected to corporal punishment. Planters relied on debt, coercion, and deception to recruit workers, while private police forces hunted down runaways and crushed resistance. European overseers were discouraged from bringing European women to the colonies, making Javanese women central to the domestic, reproductive, and sexual labour sustaining plantation life. This hidden structure of dependence remained largely absent from official colonial imagery. Combining archival propaganda footage, fragments of correspondence, and contemporary images, this two-channel installation reflects on the enduring violence and silences of Dutch colonialism.

Why do 73% of Jewish Israelis support the destruction of Gaza? Directed by BAFTA winning filmmaker Gillian Mosely, 'Planet Israel' answers this question. Within a few short months after October 7, most of global sympathy towards Israel evaporated as the world recoiled in horror at the brutality of the Israeli response to these attacks, while few Israeli Jews seem to have noticed anything untoward. As a British/American Jew, Gillian Mosely wanted to know what has happened to make Jews, a people who have experienced oppression, othering, and genocide, exhibit such moral and humanitarian numbness. More widely, how does the moral disengagement that allows atrocities the world over, happen? Gillian thought she was making a film about trauma. But the reality turned out to be so much darker than she’d imagined as the mechanisms behind our disintegrating democracies and international laws are exposed.
