SUMMARY:Movie: Foragers
DESCRIPTION:In her cinematic investigation into the Palestinian practice of foraging za’atar (a thyme-like herb) and ’akkoub (a wild artichoke-like plant)\, artist Jumana Manna reveals the perils involved in the preservation of Arab traditions under Israeli law. Her inventive blend of fiction\, documentary and archival footage in FORAGERS coalesces into a warm portrait of a community whose daily activities resist continued repression. \nBeginning with archival footage from a ‘70s Israeli TV program in which the popularity of za’atar among Arabs is being discussed\, the film shows an Israeli businessman boasting about his decision to start planting and selling za’atar\, transforming the herb from a public good typically foraged by Palestinians into an agricultural commodity that profits Israelis. (It is no coincidence the footage is from the same decade that saw a public ban on the collection of za’atar in Israel.) Manna’s film is clear about how business and politics are embroiled in the continued erasure of Palestinian culture to such effect that the “very simple act of going out and collecting wild weeds becomes about a much wider politics of land control and sovereignty.”
