SUMMARY:Movie: Severed + Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Severed (produced by Donkeysaddle Projects\, +972 Magazine and The Nation\, in partnership with Just Vision) tells the story of Mohamad Saleh\, an 18-year-old from Gaza who has lived through five major assaults.

Mohamad was able to evacuate to Egypt after surviving seven months of genocide and remains in exile there\, struggling to piece together the shattered fragments of his life. Through his eyes\, the pain and trauma endured by thousands in Gaza are laid bare\, alongside their remarkable strength\, resilience\, and determination to live. \nTickets are sliding scale\, and a portion of the proceeds benefits Gaza families.  (If comps are needed\, please contact cole@nwfilmforum.org.) \n  \nAbout the panelists/co-sponsors: \nZahyr Lauren [moderator] (they/them)\, also known as The Artist L.Haz\, is the founder of the arts\, education\, and advocacy company Koro Rules The Sun LLC.

SUMMARY:Movie: Sudan\, Remember Us
DESCRIPTION:In April 2019\, filmmaker Hind Meddeb travelled to Sudan’s capital\, Khartoum\, at a jubilant moment in the country’s history. The long-time dictator Omar Al-Bashir had recently been overthrown after a 30-year regime marked by genocidal violence in Darfur. Meddeb began filming with young activists rallying for a citizen’s government by staging sit-ins\, making music\, reciting poetry\, and painting murals. Their hopes are expressed in signs that read “Sudan free from tribalism” and “religious pluralism.” \nFor Meddeb\, who has family roots in Tunisia\, Morocco\, and Algeria\, the movement brings to mind the aspirations of her late father: “the dream of an Arab country with its customs shaken up by a feminist revolution.” She captures demonstrations going late into the night with a celebratory atmosphere. The activists are defiant against backlash. “Bullets don’t kill\,” says one young man. “What kills is people’s silence.” \nSUDAN\, REMEMBER US enshrines this moment\, but also documents the descent into war that followed. Today\, Sudan is engulfed in violence between internal factions in collusion with external arms suppliers driven to gain control over the country’s wealth of minerals. The war has displaced more than 8 million people and killed over 14\,000\, but is largely ignored by international news. No single film can explain a nation’s complex history or politics. Instead\, Meddeb simply bears witness to courageous people receiving scant coverage. Meddeb is always attuned to the power of language—dictators may come and go\, but as one activist asserts\, “poems are eternal.”

SUMMARY:What exactly happened in 1948? An animated map by Palestinian architect Nisreen Zahda
DESCRIPTION:This Saturday\, August 30\, 2025 Virtual Programming via Zoom: \nWhat exactly happened in 1948? An animated map by Palestinian architect Nisreen Zahda.\nPlease Click Here to register to attend this event via Zoom. \nScreening will start at 12:00 PM US EDT; 19:00 Palestine\, 18:00 Europe\, UK 17:00; Running Time 12 minutes\, 2023\, English language. The screening will be followed by Q&A discussions with the audience. \nAbout the Topic\nThe 1948 Nakba—Israel calls it the War of Independence and claims it fended off and conquered the invasion of several Arab armies from surrounding countries. Nothing could be further from the truth. \nAs the genocide in Gaza continues to unfold\, it’s crucial to put the events of 1948 into perspective and examine the similarities and differences. There’s a stark contrast between the misinformation and lack of media coverage in 1948 versus the live-streamed coverage of the current genocide on people’s mobile devices and screens worldwide. Was what happened in 1948 as tragic and horrific as what’s happening in Gaza now\, just unknown to the world?
