SUMMARY:Escalate Against Microsoft
DESCRIPTION:(Full location to be announced closer to the rally) \nJoin NO AZURE FOR APARTHEID for a community rally and send a clear message to Satya Nadella\, Brad Smith\, Mustafa Suleyman\, and Microsoft execs: NO TECH WEAPONS FOR GENOCIDE! IOF OFF AZURE! DIGITAL ARMS EMBARGO NOW! \nMicrosoft Build is the Coachella of tech giant monopolies violating human rights. Held annually\, #MSBuild is Microsoft’s largest conference of the year\, where Microsoft plans to showcase their latest cloud and AI developments\, all while those same technologies fuel war crimes\, apartheid\, and genocide. Let’s turn up and show Microsoft that there will be no business as usual while Microsoft and its execs have blood on their hands! #BoycottBuild \nMicrosoft Azure cloud offerings form the technological backbone of Israel’s automated apartheid and genocide systems – and the scale of Israel’s ongoing genocide of Palestinians would not be possible without Microsoft cloud and AI technology. Learn more\, follow\, and join our campaign at @noazureforapartheid! 🇵🇸

SUMMARY:Seattle International Film Festival:  Balconettes
DESCRIPTION:Want a discount on your ticket? Use code ARABISH51 for $3 when purchasing tickets! \n  \nWhile perhaps best known for her understated yet powerful performances in Portrait of a Lady on Fire and TÀR\, Noémie Merlant showcases her equally striking talent for the WTF (weird\, titillating\, and fascinating) both in front of and behind the camera with her sizzling sophomore feature as director. In the thick of a near-apocalyptic heat wave in Marseille\, we are introduced to our trio of cohabitating bosom buddies: neurotic\, sexually frustrated writer Nicole (Sanda Codrenau)\, free-spirited camgirl Ruby (Souhelia Yacoub) – actress of Tunisian descent\, and Élise (Merlant)\, an actress rapidly reaching her boiling point. A chance encounter with the brooding artist on the balcony across the way rapidly spirals into a bloody affair that threatens to haunt the girls forever—possibly literally. What begins as a sexy\, sun-drenched romp reveals itself to be a blood-drenched\, searing takedown of rape culture\, and an equally tough and tender look at the necessity of female friendship. With this bombastic\, hilarious\, and heart-rending film\, Merlant cements herself as not only a face\, but a singular voice in contemporary cinema across the globe.

SUMMARY:The Pantry: Egyptian Street Food

In this class you’ll dive into the world of kushari\, a popular dish of rice\, lentils\, pasta\, and chickpeas\, topped with a spiced tomato sauce and crispy fried onions. No exploration of Egyptian street food is complete without ful medames—a hearty stew made from slow-cooked dried fava beans\, herbs\, and lemon. Also on the menu: feteer meshaltet\, a flaky pastry that showcases the mastery of Egyptian baking. You’ll bake two versions of this dough: a savory one\, and a sweet one with nuts\, coconuts\, and raisins.

SUMMARY:Seattle International Film Festival:  Khartoum
DESCRIPTION:Want a discount on your ticket? Use code ARABISH51 for $3 when purchasing tickets! \nWhat begins as a street-level documentary of five ordinary lives in Khartoum—a civil servant\, a tea vendor\, a resistance volunteer\, and two young bottle collectors—evolves into a radically inventive chronicle of a city at the edge of collapse. Shot on donated iPhones by four Sudanese filmmakers working alongside British director Phil Cox\, production was interrupted when war erupted in April 2023. The filmmakers fled Sudan and regrouped in Nairobi\, where they transformed the project using green screen re-enactments\, animation\, and dreamlike visual reconstructions. \nThe film’s five interwoven stories bear witness to lives disrupted by conflict but never reduced by it. A mother sings lullabies to shield her daughter; two boys flee militias on the back of an invisible lion; a government worker hides from a regime unraveling around him. Through surreal vignettes and raw detail\, Khartoum refuses the distancing lens of crisis coverage. \nSo while Khartoum began as a vérité documentary shot in Sudan\, it became a diasporic production: completed in exile\, shaped by displacement\, and creatively reassembled across borders. A collaborative act of remembrance and resistance\, it is not simply about a city under siege—it is made by those who fled it\, carrying its stories with them. \nOther Showtimes: \n\n\n\n\nWEDNESDAY\, MAY 21\, 2025 – AMC Pacific Place \n\n\n\n\n\n\n1:30 PM
