SUMMARY:Movie: The Hour of Liberation Has Arrived
DESCRIPTION:THE TEN PILLARS OF BEACON: ARMED STRUGGLE \nCinema can be used as a vessel for resistance\, a tool to hasten the breaking of chains\, a beacon call for global transformation towards new collectively-forged futures. \nIn the late 60s\, Dhofar rose up against the British-backed Sultanate of Oman\, in a democratic\, feminist guerrilla movement. Director Heiny Srour and her team crossed 500 miles of desert and mountains by foot\, under bombardment by the British Royal Air Force\, to reach the conflict zone and capture this rare record of a now mostly-forgotten war.

SUMMARY:Movie: Lyd
DESCRIPTION:Lyd is a feature-length\, speculative documentary that follows the rise and fall of Lyd (alternatively Lod\, as it is now called)\, a 5\,000-year-old metropolis that was a bustling Palestinian town\, until it was taken over by the state of Israel. As the film unfolds\, residents create a tapestry of the Palestinian experience of this city and exemplify the trauma left by the 1948 massacre and expulsion. Vivid animations envision an alternate reality where the same people live free from the trauma of the past and the violence of the present. Using never-before-seen archival footage of Israeli soldiers who carried out the massacre and expulsion\, the personified city explains that these events were so devastating that they fractured reality\, and now there are two Lyds — one occupied and one free. As the film cuts between fantastical and documentary realities\, it ultimately leaves the viewer questioning which future should prevail. \nLyd dares to ask the question: what would the city be like had the Israeli occupation of Lyd never happened? \n\n\nThu Aug 08: 7.00pm PDT\n\n\nWed Aug 14: 7.30pm PDT\n\n\nThu Aug 15: 7.30pm PDT\n\n\nFri Aug 16: 7.30pm PDT\n\n\nSat Aug 17: 4.30pm PDT\n\n\nSun Aug 18: 4.30pm PDT\, 7.30pm PDT

SUMMARY:Seattle Arab Film Festival: Love and Revolt
DESCRIPTION:Ten compelling shorts from a remarkable group of emerging and established filmmakers\n“Love & Revolt\,” the 5th edition of the Seattle Arab Film Festival (SAFF)\, is a celebration of the rebellious spirit of Arab stories despite the pain of oppression. \nTo address the horrifying injustices that continue to be inflicted on Palestinians in Gaza\, and the non-stop efforts to erase their narrative\, SAFF will be featuring films labeled “Made in Palestine\,” including An Orange from Jaffa\, recipient of the Grand Prize at the 2024 Clermont-Ferrand Film Festival and The Key\, which premiered at SXSW Film Festival. \nThe screenings will be divided in two sections – “Parallel Time” and “A Place Without A Door\,” both titles inspired by the work of the late Palestinian author Walid Daqqa – separated by a brief intermission. Each film program is a similar balance of themes: From Egypt to New York\, young people experiment with gender roles and their sexual desires despite gatekeepers\, while in Algeria and Morocco\, estranged families and angry couples are brought together by the sea. The lineup consists of a total of ten short films from the US and the Arab world\, both live-action and animation\, and featuring themes of love\, family and exile.

SUMMARY:Seattle Arab Film Festival: Love and Revolt
DESCRIPTION:Ten compelling shorts from a remarkable group of emerging and established filmmakers\n“Love & Revolt\,” the 5th edition of the Seattle Arab Film Festival (SAFF)\, is a celebration of the rebellious spirit of Arab stories despite the pain of oppression. \nTo address the horrifying injustices that continue to be inflicted on Palestinians in Gaza\, and the non-stop efforts to erase their narrative\, SAFF will be featuring films labeled “Made in Palestine\,” including An Orange from Jaffa\, recipient of the Grand Prize at the 2024 Clermont-Ferrand Film Festival and The Key\, which premiered at SXSW Film Festival. \nThe screenings will be divided in two sections – “Parallel Time” and “A Place Without A Door\,” both titles inspired by the work of the late Palestinian author Walid Daqqa – separated by a brief intermission. Each film program is a similar balance of themes: From Egypt to New York\, young people experiment with gender roles and their sexual desires despite gatekeepers\, while in Algeria and Morocco\, estranged families and angry couples are brought together by the sea. The lineup consists of a total of ten short films from the US and the Arab world\, both live-action and animation\, and featuring themes of love\, family and exile.

We’ll be watching Battle of Algiers and discussing the parallels between the Algerian and Palestinian struggle for liberation. RSVP at tinyurl.com/PYMmovie \nAfter over 130 years of fierce resistance\, Algeria won its independence from French colonial occupation. We honor the millions of martyrs who made the ultimate sacrifice for Algeria’s liberation\, and we look to their struggle as a source of inspiration.

SUMMARY:Movie: Lyd
DESCRIPTION:Lyd is a feature-length\, speculative documentary that follows the rise and fall of Lyd (alternatively Lod\, as it is now called)\, a 5\,000-year-old metropolis that was a bustling Palestinian town\, until it was taken over by the state of Israel. As the film unfolds\, residents create a tapestry of the Palestinian experience of this city and exemplify the trauma left by the 1948 massacre and expulsion. Vivid animations envision an alternate reality where the same people live free from the trauma of the past and the violence of the present. Using never-before-seen archival footage of Israeli soldiers who carried out the massacre and expulsion\, the personified city explains that these events were so devastating that they fractured reality\, and now there are two Lyds — one occupied and one free. As the film cuts between fantastical and documentary realities\, it ultimately leaves the viewer questioning which future should prevail. \nLyd dares to ask the question: what would the city be like had the Israeli occupation of Lyd never happened? \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThu Aug 15: 7.30pm PDT\n\n\nFri Aug 16: 7.30pm PDT\n\n\nSat Aug 17: 4.30pm PDT\n\n\nSun Aug 18: 4.30pm PDT\, 7.30pm PDT
