Cinema Permanente is a long-term project involving the alternation of artists' films that can be viewed for a month in a specially equipped cinema hall. The programme features films that document experiences of ecological activism from below or investigate the relationship between artistic and environmental practices, alternating between artist documentaries and fiction.

Jumana Manna is a visual artist and filmmaker. Her work explores how power is articulated, focusing on the body, land and materiality in relation to colonial inheritances and histories of place. Through sculpture, filmmaking, and occasional writing, Manna deals with the paradoxes of preservation practices, particularly within the fields of architecture, agriculture and law. Her practice considers the tension between the modernist traditions of categorisation and conservation and the unruliness of ruination, life and its regeneration. Jumana was raised in Jerusalem and lives in Berlin.
