SUMMARY:Movie: From Ground Zero
DESCRIPTION:Shortlisted for Best International Feature for the 2025 Academy Awards\, FROM GROUND ZERO is an anthology project comprised of 22 short films created by filmmakers from Gaza. Launched by renowned Palestinian filmmaker Rashid Masharawi\, the initiative was created during the current 2023/2024 conflict and aims to provide a platform for young Palestinian artists to express themselves through their craft. \nEach film\, ranging in length from three to six minutes\, presents a unique perspective on the current reality in Gaza. The project captures the diverse experiences of life in the Palestinian enclave\, including the challenges\, tragedies\, and moments of resilience faced by its people. Using a mix of genres including fiction\, documentary\, docu-fiction\, animation\, and experimental cinema\, From Ground Zero presents a rich diversity of stories that reflect the sorrow\, joy\, and hope inherent in Gazan life. \nDespite harsh filming conditions\, Gaza’s vibrant artistic scene shines through this stunning anthology film\, which offers an intimate and powerful portrait of daily life in modern-day Palestine – and the enduring spirit of its people. \nIn Arabic with English subtitles. \n“The fact that this film even exists seems miraculous… [From Ground Zero] aims to humanize\, to empathize\, to go beyond the headlines and geopolitics. It aims to convey the hopes and dreams of everyday people\, which persist even in dire circumstances.” Jennifer Green\, Alliance of Women Film Journalists \n“A powerful cry to the world that these filmmakers\, collaborators\, and people walking in the background are still there\, still living under worsening conditions\, and still need help. From Ground Zero is an unforgettable exhibition of the human spirit.” Monica Castillo\, RogerEbert.com

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. \n\n\nOther Showtimes:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMONDAY\, MAY 19\, 2025 \n\n\n\n\nSIFF Cinema Downtown \n3:15 PM
