Dear Yosefa,
Thanks for these references. On Palestinian cinema there is quite a bit
already done, and new works coming out regularly... If you're
interested, I have a bibliography on the topic up on
http://www.dreamsofanation.org/critical_writings.html
Of course more is available in Arabic, also quite a bit is written on
the topic in French, but these are some of what's out in English.
A new book has also been released, to which I've contributed a more
extensive bibliography and filmography:

best wishes,
Kamran
