SUMMARY:NWFF Movie:  Boycott (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:When a news publisher in Arkansas\, an attorney in Arizona\, and a speech therapist in Texas are told they must choose between their jobs and their political beliefs\, they launch legal battles that expose an attack on freedom of speech across 33 states in America.\nBoycott traces the impact of state legislation designed to penalize individuals and companies that choose to boycott Israel due to its human rights record. A legal thriller with “accidental plaintiffs” at the center of the story\, Boycott is a bracing look at the far-reaching implications of anti-boycott legislation and an inspiring tale of everyday Americans standing up to protect our rights in an age of shifting politics and threats to freedom of speech.

SUMMARY:Virtual screening of the film "Hanna K"
DESCRIPTION:Hanna K. is a 1983 American drama film (1H40M) directed by Costa-Gavras\, starring Jill Clayburgh and Gabriel Byrne. The film was an attempt to depict the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in human terms. \nHanna K. is the story of Hanna Kaufman\, a child of Holocaust survivors and an American-Jewish immigrant to Israel\, who is a court-appointed lawyer assigned to defend a Palestinian\, Salim Bakri\, accused of terrorism and infiltration. Salim claims that he was trying to regain possession of his family house. Hanna saves him from a jail sentence\, but he is deported to Jordan. Salim eventually returns\, is jailed for illegal immigration\, and he again asks for her services. Hanna investigates the story and discovered that Salim’s family home is now a tourist attraction in Kafr Rimon\, a settlement built and lived in by Russian Jews. Bakri’s former village of Kufr Rumaneh has disappeared except for a few stones and trees.

SUMMARY:The Magical Writer: QTIPOC Authors Dissect Magic Realism
DESCRIPTION:As a genre\, magic realism feels like a blessing and a curse. It offers space to marginalized folks to tell their stories without feeling triggered by it\, and open space for a richer approach to imagination. Yet\, it also feels like a stamp of approval for us to reach a wider audience\, an evaluation of the magical Indian\, the capable Black\, the exotic Arab\, or the mysterious Asian troupes. \nIn this panel\, we will be discussing the origin of the term\, asking ourselves if we identify with it\, and looking at the relationship between QTIPOC authors and the way the term is understood by the mainstream White\, heteronormative society. \nCurator Danny Ramadan brings together some of the most exciting voices in Canada: Joshua Whitehead (Johnny Appleseed\, Making Love with the Land)\, Larissa Lai (The Tiger Flu\, Iron Goddess of Mercy)\, and Rasiqra Revulva (Cephalopography 2.0). \nCurated and moderated by Danny Ramadan

SUMMARY:Sudan Archives at Neumos
DESCRIPTION:“As Sudan Archives\, Brittney Parks has combined left-field strains of R&B\, hip-hop\, and experimental electronic music with hypnotic string loops and the fiddling style of West Africa\, as heard on a pair of EPs and her debut full-length\, Athena (2019). She masterfully bridged the gap between her early glitchy\, avant-garde compositions and timeless songwriting on the “stunning\, reflective” (Pitchfork) Athena\, and returned in 2022 with two new songs (Home Maker\, Selfish Soul).The self-taught violinist\, singer\, songwriter\, and producer started playing violin in her native Cincinnati\, Ohio. After Parks moved to Los Angeles to study music technology\, she started producing beats on a tablet computer with the addition of her vocals and strings\, the latter increasingly inspired by immersion in Sudanese music. For her first LP (Athena)\, she took a collaborative approach and worked with a group of fellow producers who included Paul White\, Rodaidh McDonald\, and Wilma Archer after self-producing her first two EP’s. “A swaggering statement of intent with all the idiosyncratic charm that makes her music so memorable” – Pitchfork (Best New Track\, 2022) “The US singer and violinist’s debut album contains some of the most viscerally gorgeous music put to record this year” – The Guardian
“Athena is … a record of true beauty and resilience.” – CRACK” (Promo Copy)
