SUMMARY:The Somali Table
DESCRIPTION:Due to its location and landmass\, Somalia is a true culinary crossroad. Indigenous Somali regional cuisines woven with lasting Italian\, South Asian\, and Middle Eastern influences have resulted in a cuisine that is dynamic and unique. Join local chef Ifrah F. Ahmed in class\, where she will teach you about the food of Somalia and how to make some of her favorite classic dishes. On the menu: xawaash-spiced lamb (braised lamb shanks with xawaash spice and cilantro garlic sauce); muufo (corn flatbread); fuul (mashed fava bean and tomato stew); and bariis(Somali-style rice). \nPlease note: some classes can be adjusted for students with dietary restrictions\, but many cannot. If you’re vegetarian\, pescatarian\, or gluten-free\, you can use the drop-down menu on our events page to view the best classes to fit your needs. If a class you’re interested in doesn’t appear in that filtered view\, please email us before registering and we’ll see if the class’s menu can be modified.

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

SUMMARY:Seattle International Film Festival:  Khartoum
DESCRIPTION:Want a discount on your ticket? Use code ARABISH51 for $3 when purchasing tickets! \nWhat begins as a street-level documentary of five ordinary lives in Khartoum—a civil servant\, a tea vendor\, a resistance volunteer\, and two young bottle collectors—evolves into a radically inventive chronicle of a city at the edge of collapse. Shot on donated iPhones by four Sudanese filmmakers working alongside British director Phil Cox\, production was interrupted when war erupted in April 2023. The filmmakers fled Sudan and regrouped in Nairobi\, where they transformed the project using green screen re-enactments\, animation\, and dreamlike visual reconstructions. \nThe film’s five interwoven stories bear witness to lives disrupted by conflict but never reduced by it. A mother sings lullabies to shield her daughter; two boys flee militias on the back of an invisible lion; a government worker hides from a regime unraveling around him. Through surreal vignettes and raw detail\, Khartoum refuses the distancing lens of crisis coverage. \nSo while Khartoum began as a vérité documentary shot in Sudan\, it became a diasporic production: completed in exile\, shaped by displacement\, and creatively reassembled across borders. A collaborative act of remembrance and resistance\, it is not simply about a city under siege—it is made by those who fled it\, carrying its stories with them. \nOther Showtimes: \n\n\n\n\nWEDNESDAY\, MAY 21\, 2025 – AMC Pacific Place \n\n\n\n\n\n\n1:30 PM

SUMMARY:Contemporary Translated Works Book Group: Sand-Catcher by Omar Khalifah\, Translated by Barbara Romaine
DESCRIPTION:Join the Contemporary Translated Works Book Group – Now Monthly! \nMechanics’ Institute\, in partnership with the Center for the Art of Translation and our new presenting partner\, Folio: The Seattle Athenaeum\, is thrilled to announce the expansion of the Contemporary Translated Works Book Group into a monthly\, member-led series! Beginning Spring 2025\, we will host lunchtime discussions (12:00–1:00 pm PT) online via Zoom on the third Wednesday of each month\, featuring thought-provoking literary selections from around the world. \nFour young\, Palestinian journalists at a Jordanian newspaper are tasked\, on account of their heritage\, with profiling one of the last living witnesses of the Nakba\, the violent expulsion of native Palestinians by the nascent state of Israel in 1948. The old man has no desire to be interviewed\, no desire for his memories to be preserved\, no desire to serve as an inspiration for the youth of tomorrow. As threats from the team’s editor-in-chief put more and more pressure on the journalists\, they must decide just how far they’re willing to go to get the old man on the record. \nJoin us at 11:30 AM for a Q&A with the translator before the discussion at 12:00 PM. \nFree to Folio members.\nLearn more and get tickets >> \nOrder Sand-Catcher >>

SUMMARY:Seattle International Film Festival:  Everybody Loves Touda
DESCRIPTION:Want a discount on your ticket? Use code ARABISH51 for $3 when purchasing tickets! \nIn the latest film from Nabil Ayouch (Horses of God\, SIFF 2014) co-written with his wife\, director Maryam Touzani (The Blue Caftan\, SIFF 2023)\, Touda dreams of being a sheikha\, or traditional Moroccan folk singer. More than that\, she is determined to be one\, which is fortunate because the road ahead is a rocky one. A single mother with a young son to support\, she sings at parties and in bars in her provincial town. But these opportunities are limited and fraught with risk\, as her male audience’s “love” often shades into something more proprietary and threatening. She sets her sights on Casablanca and\, leaving her son with her parents and ignoring the disapproval of her conservative brother\, she heads to the big city. There Touda meets an older musician\, a violinist who recognizes her ambition and her potential\, and becomes a sort of mentor. With his help\, she sets about to master the aita\, a Moroccan musical genre rooted in poetry about the many struggles of life\, from the personal to the political. As her singing improves\, she can command higher fees and a more elite audience. But in a culture where female performers are as often eroticized and stigmatized as venerated\, what does it really mean to be loved? \n  \nOther Showtimes: \n\n\nTICKETS\nSelect showtime for pricing and tickets. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nFRIDAY\, MAY 23\, 2025 \n\n\n\n\nSIFF Cinema Uptown \n8:30 PM

SUMMARY:Seattle International Film Festival:  Moon
DESCRIPTION:Want a discount on your ticket? Use code ARABISH51 for $3 when purchasing tickets! \nSarah (played by provocateur performance artist Florentina Holzinger) is an Austrian professional MMA fighter who has just lost a career-ending fight. She’s tough\, with a face that shows her decades spent brawling\, and she doesn’t hesitate to accept a job offer that her friends and family believe is too good to be true: A wealthy Jordanian man has hired Sarah to be a private trainer for his three sisters\, who never leave the mansion without a bodyguard.

SUMMARY:Seattle International Film Festival:  To A Land Unknown
DESCRIPTION:Want a discount on your ticket? Use code ARABISH51 for $3 when purchasing tickets! \nMahdi Fleifel\, who made the great documentary A World Not Ours (SIFF 2013) about the Ein el-Helweh refugee camp in Lebanon\, where his parents were born\, returns to the Festival with his fiction debut\, To a Land Unknown. \nThe refugees in this story have made out of their camp and travelled to Athens\, where they are stranded en route to Germany. Chatila is clever and resourceful\, and it falls to him to come up with a plan; Reda\, his cousin\, is sweet but hapless\, owing in part to a weakness for drugs. To raise the money they need for fake passports\, they resort to increasingly desperate crimes: stealing\, sex work\, human trafficking. To sustain themselves\, they nurture the fantasy of the café they plan to open in Germany\, where Chatila’s wife will cook\, and they’ll make enough money to bring the rest of their family\, currently stuck in the camp. \nWhile films about refugees are not uncommon\, what sets this film apart is the way the director puts us squarely in Chatila and Reda’s shoes as they try to figure out how to reach their final destination\, how to keep themselves alive in the meanwhile\, and how to do it all without losing their humanity in the process. \nOther Showtimes: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSATURDAY\, MAY 24\, 2025\, Shoreline Community College\n\n\n\n\n\n\n8:30 PM

SUMMARY:Seattle International Film Festival:  Everybody Loves Touda
DESCRIPTION:Want a discount on your ticket? Use code ARABISH51 for $3 when purchasing tickets! \nIn the latest film from Nabil Ayouch (Horses of God\, SIFF 2014) co-written with his wife\, director Maryam Touzani (The Blue Caftan\, SIFF 2023)\, Touda dreams of being a sheikha\, or traditional Moroccan folk singer. More than that\, she is determined to be one\, which is fortunate because the road ahead is a rocky one. A single mother with a young son to support\, she sings at parties and in bars in her provincial town. But these opportunities are limited and fraught with risk\, as her male audience’s “love” often shades into something more proprietary and threatening. She sets her sights on Casablanca and\, leaving her son with her parents and ignoring the disapproval of her conservative brother\, she heads to the big city. There Touda meets an older musician\, a violinist who recognizes her ambition and her potential\, and becomes a sort of mentor. With his help\, she sets about to master the aita\, a Moroccan musical genre rooted in poetry about the many struggles of life\, from the personal to the political. As her singing improves\, she can command higher fees and a more elite audience. But in a culture where female performers are as often eroticized and stigmatized as venerated\, what does it really mean to be loved?

SUMMARY:Virtual Lecture: The Timeless Thobe – Documenting Land\, Heritage & Culture in Palestinian Dress
DESCRIPTION:Date: Saturday\, May 24\, 2025\n\nTime: 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM EST\nLocation: Online\, Zoom link will be emailed 24 hours prior to event\nInstructor: Wafa Ghnaim\, Dress Historian\, Researcher & Educator\nRegistration Fee: Sliding scale \nThe thobe\, a traditional hand embroidered dress made and worn by Palestinian women for centuries\, is the bedrock of Palestinian identity through heritage\, culture and land. For millennia\, women in the eastern Mediterranean have showcased their skillful stitchery on their traditional dress\, displaying unique motifs\, colors and styles across the various villages of old Palestine. \nAfter 1948\, over 750\,000 Palestinians were forced into exile\, carrying their dressmaking and embroidery traditions with them into refugee camps and around the world. As the diaspora spread across the globe\, the largest and longest-standing population of displaced people in the world\, the thobe evolved into a symbol of national and cultural identity beyond borders. \nIn this live virtual lecture\, dress historian\, researcher\, and educator Wafa Ghnaim will explore the evolution of the thobe and the visual language of tatreez (embroidery) as used on traditional Palestinian dress. From village styles to diasporic adaptations\, this talk offers a compelling look at how dress documents the intertwined threads of history\, memory\, and identity. \nWhat You’ll Receive:\n\nLive access to the 2-hour lecture\nA recording for 7 days after the live session\n\nImportant Notes:\n\nTickets are nonrefundable.\nThis is a live\, virtual event hosted via Zoom.\nRegistration closes at 10:00 AM EST on May 24\, 2025.\nA Zoom link will be sent via email the day before the event.\nThe instructor reserves the right to review and decline registrations at her discretion to ensure a respectful and safe learning environment for all participants.\nSpace is limited to ensure an intimate and interactive experience.\nSharing your camera is required.

SUMMARY:Seattle International Film Festival:  Coexistence\, My Ass!
DESCRIPTION:Want a discount on your ticket? Use code ARABISH51 for $3 when purchasing tickets! \nComedy about Israel and Palestine is a high-wire act and perhaps never more so than now\, which is part of what makes this documentary about Israeli comedian Noam Shuster-Eliassi so riveting. With an Iranian-Jewish mother and an Ashkenazi Romanian father\, Noam grew up in Neve Shalom/Wahat al Salam\, an intentional community where Arab and Jewish families live together by choice\, and where her left-wing parents moved the family in the early 1990s. \nA committed activist for equal rights for Palestinians and Jews—as she explains\, coexistence can only exist between equals—she studied International Relations at Brandeis before taking a job at the United Nations.

SUMMARY:Free Film Screening: Israelism
DESCRIPTION:Two young American Jews travel to Israel seeking a deeper understanding of the country they were raised to love. What they encounter profoundly impacts them\, leading them to join a growing movement to redefine their community’s relationship with Israel in this challenging and emotional journey. Join us for the free screening of this film. \nAbout the film\nTwo young American Jews – Simone Zimmerman and Eitan – are raised to defend the state of Israel at all costs. Eitan joins the Israeli military. Simone supports Israel on ‘the other battlefield:’ America’s college campuses. When they witness Israel‘s mistreatment of the Palestinian people with their own eyes\, they are horrified and heartbroken.\nThey join the movement of young American Jews battling the old guard over Israel’s centrality in American Judaism\, and demanding freedom for the Palestinian people. Their stories reveal a generational divide in the American Jewish community as more young Jews question the narratives their synagogues and Hebrew school teachers fed them as children. \nThe film also features voices like Jacqui\, a Jewish educator who says “Judaism is Israel and Israel is Judaism”\, and former Anti-Defamation League President Abe Foxman\, who claims voices like Simone and Eitan’s represent a small minority. Thought leaders like Peter Beinart\, Jeremy Ben-Ami\, Noura Erakat\, Cornel West\, and Noam Chomsky also weigh in. \nDirected by two first-time Jewish filmmakers who share a similar story to the film’s protagonists\, Israelism is produced by Peabody-winner and 4-time Emmy-nominee Daniel J. Chalfen (Loudmouth\, Boycott)\, executive produced by two-time Emmy-winner Brian A. Kates (Marvelous Ms. Maisel\, Succession) and edited by Emmy-winner Tony Hale (The Story of Plastic)\, Israelism uniquely explores how Jewish attitudes towards Israel are changing dramatically\, with massive consequences for the region and for Judaism itself.
