SUMMARY:SIFF: The Burdened (Yemen)
DESCRIPTION:Films from Yemen are rare\, in part because of the country’s long-running civil war\, now in its tenth year. Indeed\, the impact of the war on the country and its citizens—there’s no running water; electricity is erratic; warring factions struggle for control—is one of the burdens faced by middle-class couple Isra’a and Ahmed. Ahmed works for Aden Television\, but as a result of the country’s economic crisis\, his salary has been suspended for several months. Meanwhile\, he’s taken a second job as a taxi driver\, but it isn’t enough to keep them and their three children in their comfortable apartment. Isra’a\, who has also lost her job\, sells her jewelry to make ends meet. This is the context in which Isra’a realizes that she is pregnant. Keenly aware that they cannot afford a fourth child\, she is also worried about whether abortion is permitted under Islam. Religious and public opinion on the issue vary\, which means that Isra’a’s personal misgivings are only the beginning. Clear-eyed\, understated\, and compelling\, The Burdened tells a story that is at once specific to Yemen’s particular context\, and relatable in any country where religion and politics threaten people’s ability to access the healthcare they need\, and take care of themselves and their families. \n

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: The Mother of All Lies (Morocco)
DESCRIPTION:How do you reconstruct the past when all traces of that past have been erased? This is the dilemma that confronts filmmaker Asmae El Moudir\, in terms of both her personal history and the history of her country. In terms of her personal history\, her tyrannical grandmother has forbidden the taking of photographs in the family\, seemingly as part of a larger obfuscation of the past. In the absence of photographs\, El Moudir enlists her father\, a successful builder\, to help her construct an elaborate diorama of the street where the family lived during her childhood\, in the Sebata district of Casablanca. She populates the diorama with miniature clay figurines of her family\, friends\, and neighbors. Their real-life counterparts are then invited to revisit their memories of that time and place—in particular the 1981 Casablanca Bread Riots\, protests over the price of bread that were brutally suppressed by the police and military. On El Moudir’s street alone\, a girl her age named Fatima was killed in the street; neighbors Saïd and Abdallah were seized and tortured. These events have been suppressed in El Moudir’s family history\, as well as in the national history. But El Moudir recreates them\, retrieving what might otherwise be lost; bringing family secrets and memories to light\, and achieving some measure of justice\, if only in miniature. \n
