SUMMARY:Posters for Gaza: SZ Gallery
DESCRIPTION:In this unique exhibition\, twenty-six artists come together to raise their voices\, through a series of posters produced specifically for this exhibition. The posters shed light on the ethnic cleansing and horrific massacres taking place in the Gaza Strip – possibly the worst in modern history – demanding the recognition of Palestinian rights to live freely on their land with dignity. \nRepresenting a long tradition in Palestinian history\, political posters were produced extensively in the seventies and the eighties by the Palestinian Liberation Organization with the contribution of Palestinian\, Arab\, and international artists. Posters played a crucial role in supporting the justice of the Palestinian cause and promoting it globally guided by the freedom\, dignity\, resilience\, and the ongoing aspiration for independence\, sought by Palestinians. \nUniformly sized and designed in a simplified manner\, the posters of each artist reflect their uniqueness in terms of style\, materials\, and the underlying narratives. Steering away from the digital norm\, participating artists poured their effort into producing those posters utilizing a variety of materials including acrylics\, inks\, charcoal\, collage\, and mixed media on paper\, while some artists employed various digital design techniques.

SUMMARY:Movie: The Old Oak
DESCRIPTION:The Old Oak is a special place. Not only is it the last pub standing in its small northern town\, but it’s also the only remaining public space where people can meet in a once thriving mining community that has now fallen on hard times after 30 years of decline. Its owner TJ Ballantyne (Dave Turner) hangs on to The Old Oak by his fingertips\, and his predicament is endangered even more when the pub becomes contested territory after the arrival of Syrian refugees who are placed in the village without any notice. In an unlikely friendship\, TJ meets a curious young Syrian photographer named Yara (Ebla Mari). Together can they find a way for the two communities to understand each other? So unfolds a deeply moving drama about their fragilities and hopes.

SUMMARY:SIFF: Three Promises [Palestine]
DESCRIPTION:In the early 2000s\, when the Israeli army was retaliating against the Second Intifada in the West Bank in Palestine\, Suha filmed the experience from the hillside town of Beit Jala\, where she lived with her family. Two decades later\, her son has edited that footage and interwoven it with present-day conversations with his mother about what that period was like. The result provides a remarkable insight into daily life during wartime—the uncertainty\, the upheaval\, the terror—which families in Gaza are experiencing today. Suha and her husband try to gauge the distance of the attacks in order to calculate the degree of threat. Is it time to go down to the basement\, or is it still okay to remain upstairs? Will the children be safer against the wall or in the corner? At the moments of greatest danger\, Suha promises God that\, if they survive\, they will leave—they are fortunate enough to be able to do so. But leaving feels almost as impossible as staying\, a choice between emotional anguish (not to mention the logistical ordeal) and physical jeopardy. In this way\, the film is also an exploration of the topic of forced migration\, another aspect of the Palestinian experience that is still with us in the present. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Seffarine
DESCRIPTION:“gorgeous intersection of Spanish flamenco\, Arabic and Andalusian music\, Persian classical\, and jazz” -Bass Player Magazine\n\nThe sounds that stir the dry winds of Southern Spain and Morocco\, two countries separated by only a whisper of the Mediterranean\, are the musical DNA of a beautifully complex extended family linking North Africa and Europe.\n\nThe musicians of Seffarine\, soulful Moroccan singer Lamiae Naki and flamenco guitarist Nat Hulskamp\, supported by master musicians of diverse cultures\, embrace and extend this rich legacy. Their exciting performances masterfully combine explosive flamenco footwork\, exotic instrumentation and grooving basslines. These diverse backgrounds meld\, creating what SoundRoots describes as “an ear-caressing blend of sounds from Spain and North Africa\, spiced with a bit of fiery instrumentation and percussion.”\n\n“Seffarine’s music can melt the coldest hearts” -Chicago Reader
