SUMMARY:Movie (streaming) : Je Veux Voir + Barmeh
DESCRIPTION:The screenings presented in August highlight films by Hadjithomas and Joreige which have to do with vision and perception in post-war Lebanon. In Je Veux Voir (I Want to See)\, the filmmakers travel to Beirut with iconic French actress Catherine Deneuve. In the film\, she meets with artist and actor Rabih Mroué\, and together\, the two drive through the regions of Lebanon devastated by the 2006 war\, areas that remain inaccessible to most citizens. Through the presence and meeting of these two stars\, the filmmakers hope to find the beauty in Lebanon which the eye can no longer perceive.\n\nBarmeh (Rounds) is a video featuring Rabih Mroué\, filmed driving through the streets of the city. Beirut is evoked through the driver’s stories and through sound\, but the city is never seen; it is rendered invisible in an overexposed whiteness. Like his driving\, Mroué’s stories spin in a circle. He is like a ghost\, haunting the streets of a city where a reconstruction project is in a post-Civil War period.\n\nAvailable virtually US ONLY August 25–28\, 2022. TICKETS ARE EXTREMELY LIMITED. TICKETS

SUMMARY:Movie: 1982 at SIFF
DESCRIPTION:Lebanon | 2019 | 100 min. | Oualid Mouaness \n\n\n\n1982 is a life-affirming coming-of-age tale set at an idyllic school in Lebanon’s mountains on the eve of a looming invasion. It unfolds over a single day and follows an 11-year-oldboy’s relentless quest to profess his love to a girl in his class. As the invasion encroaches on Beirut\, it upends the day\, threatening the entire country and its cohesion. Within the microcosm of the school\, the film draws a harrowing portrait of a society torn between its desire for love and peace and the ideological schisms unraveling its seams. \nIn his debut feature\, Oualid Mouaness delivers an ode to innocence in which he revisits one of the most cataclysmic moments in Lebanon’s history through the lens of a child and his vibrant imagination. It demonstrates the complexities of love and war\, and the resilience of the human spirit. \n\n\n\nDirector:Oualid Mouaness\nPrincipal Cast:Nadine Labaki\, Mohamad Dalli\, Rodrigue Sleiman\, Aliya Khalidi\nCountry:Lebanon\, France\, Norway\, Qatar\, USA\nYear:2019\nRunning Time:100 min.\nAwards:TIFF19 Netpac Award\, Grand Prix Cannes Écrans Juniors 2021\, Oscars 2020 Official Selection (International Feature Film)\nLanguage:Arabic\, English\nHas Subtitles:Yes\nUS Distributor:Tricycle Logic (theatrical)\nInternational Sales:House Of Film

SUMMARY:Movie: Costa Brava at SIFF
DESCRIPTION:Lebanon | 2021 | 107 min. | Mounia Akl \nFilmed just a couple of months after the August 2020 Beirut port explosion that claimed more than 200 lives\, this film references an earlier crisis of government corruption and ineptitude\, the 2015 Beirut garbage crisis\, when the streets of the city were congested with uncollected trash. But it functions as both a general-purpose lamentation for Lebanon as well as an allegory for our global climate catastrophe. Soraya (Nadine Labaki) and Walid Badri (Saleh Bakri) long ago fled the pollution and dysfunction of Beirut to live off the grid in an idyllic mountain hideaway. Raising their two young daughters and caring for Walid’s elderly mother\, they have abandoned the political action with which they used to face the country’s problems—until the country’s problems come looking for them. One day\, representatives of the government arrive in the valley where the Badris live to begin construction of a new landfill. (“Don’t worry\,” they assure them\, “This will be a ‘green’ landfill.”) The construction gradually encroaches on the family’s property\, and the pile of garbage grows bigger. As toxic smoke fills the air and the water in the swimming pool turns blood-red\, tensions rise within the family. “Where will we run away to this time?” asks Soraya. A famous singer and activist in her younger years\, she is ready to take up the struggle again. Walid is not so sure. — Justine Barda \n\n\n\nDirector:Mounia Akl\nPrincipal Cast:Nadine Labaki\, Saleh Bakri\, Nadia Charbel\, Ceana Restom\, Geana Restom\nCountry:Lebanon\, France\, Spain\, Sweden\, Denmark\, Norway\, Qatar\nYear:2021\nRunning Time:107 min.\nProducer:Myriam Sassine\, Georges Schoucair\nScreenplay:Mounia Akl\, Clara Roquet\nCinematographers:Joe Saade\nEditors:Carlos Marques-Marcet\, Cyril Aris\nMusic:Nathan Larson\nAwards:London Film Festival 2021 (Audience Award: Best Film)\nLanguage:Arabic\nHas Subtitles:Yes\nUS Distributor:Kino Lorber\nInternational Sales:mk2 Films

DESCRIPTION:Lebanon | 2021 | 107 min. | Mounia Akl \nFilmed just a couple of months after the August 2020 Beirut port explosion that claimed more than 200 lives\, this film references an earlier crisis of government corruption and ineptitude\, the 2015 Beirut garbage crisis\, when the streets of the city were congested with uncollected trash. But it functions as both a general-purpose lamentation for Lebanon as well as an allegory for our global climate catastrophe. Soraya (Nadine Labaki) and Walid Badri (Saleh Bakri) long ago fled the pollution and dysfunction of Beirut to live off the grid in an idyllic mountain hideaway. Raising their two young daughters and caring for Walid’s elderly mother\, they have abandoned the political action with which they used to face the country’s problems—until the country’s problems come looking for them. One day\, representatives of the government arrive in the valley where the Badris live to begin construction of a new landfill. (“Don’t worry\,” they assure them\, “This will be a ‘green’ landfill.”) The construction gradually encroaches on the family’s property\, and the pile of garbage grows bigger. As toxic smoke fills the air and the water in the swimming pool turns blood-red\, tensions rise within the family. “Where will we run away to this time?” asks Soraya. A famous singer and activist in her younger years\, she is ready to take up the struggle again. Walid is not so sure. — Justine Barda \n\n\n\nDirector:Mounia Akl\nPrincipal Cast:Nadine Labaki\, Saleh Bakri\, Nadia Charbel\, Ceana Restom\, Geana Restom\nCountry:Lebanon\, France\, Spain\, Sweden\, Denmark\, Norway\, Qatar\nYear:2021\nRunning Time:107 min.\nProducer:Myriam Sassine\, Georges Schoucair\nScreenplay:Mounia Akl\, Clara Roquet\nCinematographers:Joe Saade\nEditors:Carlos Marques-Marcet\, Cyril Aris\nMusic:Nathan Larson\nAwards:London Film Festival 2021 (Audience Award: Best Film)\nLanguage:Arabic\nHas Subtitles:Yes\nUS Distributor:Kino Lorber\nInternational Sales:mk2 Films

SUMMARY:NWFF Movie:  Boycott (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:When a news publisher in Arkansas\, an attorney in Arizona\, and a speech therapist in Texas are told they must choose between their jobs and their political beliefs\, they launch legal battles that expose an attack on freedom of speech across 33 states in America.\nBoycott traces the impact of state legislation designed to penalize individuals and companies that choose to boycott Israel due to its human rights record. A legal thriller with “accidental plaintiffs” at the center of the story\, Boycott is a bracing look at the far-reaching implications of anti-boycott legislation and an inspiring tale of everyday Americans standing up to protect our rights in an age of shifting politics and threats to freedom of speech.

SUMMARY:Movie: Fangs (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Films available 12 a.m. ET Thursday\, Oct. 27 to 11:59 p.m. ET Monday\, Oct. 31\nArab Film Series Online: Fangs (Anyab)\nFree Online Stream | Suggested $5 Donation – Register \nA girl and her fiancé are on their way to a party on New Year’s Eve when their car has an accident\, and they find nowhere to go except a strange castle. They are met there by many vampires\, led by count Dracula\, who instantly falls in love with the girl and wants her for himself. The two lovers discover that Dracula is in Egypt in many forms (doctor\, taxi driver\, plumber\, etc.) not to suck people’s blood but to suck their money\, as a typical modern profiteer. Combining the genres of horror\, fantasy and musical\, this film will definitely leave a lasting impression! Directed by Mohammed Shebl. \n“A lost gem of Egyptian queer cinema\, Anyab is an unfaithful remake of the musical cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Although the story is apparently the same\, Shebl’s film is almost too homoerotic to handle. Weaved into its camp aesthetics\, horror genre tropes and 80s disco numbers\, Anyab provides a running commentary on the social situation in Egypt\, from youth unemployment to class struggle\, while intersecting sexual politics into the mix.” (Gasworks) \n100 Minutes / 1981 / Egypt / Horror\, Drama\, Camp / PG-13 / Arabic with English subtitles \nFor questions\, e-mail Dave Serio at dserio@accesscommunity.org.

While searching in an Israeli archive\, filmmaker Karnit Mandel stumbles across film reels from a long-lost Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) film archive. This never-before-seen footage was seized by Israel during the 1982 invasion of Lebanon\, and Mandel begins to wonder what is so dangerous in it that requires hiding. As the truth of these historical records unravel\, she comes into conflict with the bureaucracy of Israel’s military apparatus\, which denies the possession of additional footage. Will she be able to wrestle back any of this untold history\, or will the reels forever remain buried

SUMMARY:26th Arab Film Festival Shorts: Queer Lens
DESCRIPTION:AFMI’s annual Queer Lens program celebrates the multi-dimensional formations of Arab queerness in stories that so urgently need to be told\, especially in today’s polarized media climate that leaves issues of visibility lost in the haze\, or\, worse: cast in a one-size-fits-all “Western Queer Narrative” that ignores the many complexities and nuances faced by LGBTQ+ persons in the Arab World and beyond. \nThis year’s program theme is Diaspora & Displacement and features 5 award-winning short films that highlight the experiences of Queer Arabs around the globe. The characters in these stories all find themselves at the intersection of their identities. Some must reconcile the reality of their sexuality with a family who loves but does not understand\, others work towards a life lived authentically in a society that does not accept them and a few explore leaving a place that is not safe even though it means letting go of those they care about. In this collection\, audiences will find stories that may be unique in their details but are deeply relatable at their core and despite the difficulties\, celebrate honesty and love. \nJoin us after the screening for Arab + Queer + Film: between here and there a conversation with four of the filmmakers in the Queer Lens program. \nThis program includes the following films: \nHabib & the Thief (Sweden) dir. Naures Sager \nThe Window (Lebanon) dir. Sarah Kaskas \nFaraway (Canada) dir. Aziz Zoromba \nDress Up (United States) dir. Karina Dandashi \nWarsha (Lebanon) dir. Dania Bdeir
