SUMMARY:Arab Films at SIFF:  The Big Hit
DESCRIPTION:Perhaps best known for Welcome to the Sticks\, the highest-grossing film of all time in France\, Kad Merad [French-Algerian] stars as Etienne\, a prickly out-of-work actor who makes ends meet by leading exercises at corporate retreats and running a theater workshop in a prison. In his work at the prison\, he is struck by the rhythm of pause and postponement that defines the prisoners’ lives\, prompting him to stage a production of Samuel Beckett’s play “Waiting for Godot.” It’s more than anyone has asked of these men before\, and perhaps more than anyone has thought them capable of. But able to recognize themselves in the characters and their circumstances\, the prisoners rise to the occasion and the production is a great success\, for them and Etienne\, too. When they are invited to take the play on the road—all the way to the Odéon Theater in Paris—their world expands\, transforming the way they see themselves and their future. The story is inspired by remarkable true events in Sweden in 1985\, when Swedish actor Jan Jönson staged a public performance of “Waiting for Godot” with a group of inmates from a high-security prison in the historic Gothenburg City Theatre. Upon hearing of the events that transpired\, Samuel Beckett himself observed\, “That’s the best thing that happened to this play since I wrote it!” \n— Justine Barda \nDirector Biography\nEmmanuel Courcol graduated the l’École Nationale des Arts et Techniques du Théâtre in 1984 as a trained actor. He acted in about 30 plays and as many movies but gradually moved to writing\, working with Philippe Lioret on four screenplays. After Ceasefire (2017)\, The Big Hit (2020) is his second feature film.

SUMMARY:Zikra: Remembering ‘Abd al-Halim Hafiz
DESCRIPTION:By the end of his career\, ‘Abd al-Halim Hafiz was the most popular singer in Egypt. Radio stations received unprecedented numbers of requests of his songs\, and he earned more money for his concerts than any other performer of the day. His cassette sales were similarly unmatched. Nor was Halim’s impact limited to the music sphere. As a pop celebrity\, he shaped the everyday lives of Egyptians\, from the way they dressed and styled their hair to where they spent their wedding night. The event will feature a presentation by Dr. Nicholas Mangialardi on the singer’s musical legacy followed by a live performance of ‘Abd al-Halim hits by Egyptian jazz vocalist Ahmed Harfoush and his band. \n  \nThe event will feature a presentation by Dr. Nicholas Mangialardi on the singer’s musical legacy followed by a live performance of ‘Abd al-Halim hits by Egyptian jazz vocalist Ahmed Harfoush and his band. \nAbout Presenters: \nNicholas Mangialardi: \nMangialardi received his PhD from Georgetown University in Arabic and Islamic Studies in 2020. His dissertation explores the music\, life\, and afterlife of Egyptian singer ‘Abd al-Halim Hafiz. He has also conducted research in cities throughout Egypt on the development of hip hop culture in the country. As an ARCE Fellow in 2017-2018\, Mangialardi co-organized the conference Egyptian Soundscapes: Music\, Sound\, and Built Environment\, held in Cairo. \nAhmed Harfoush:  \nHarfoush spent his childhood between Washington DC and Cairo\, Harfoush was exposed to both worlds at an early age. Once an Egyptologist then an administrator at Chicago House living in Luxor in the late 90s and later as a United Nations staff member in Cairo. \nHarfoush was clasically trained as a tenor performing with a few choirs in Cairo\, then switched his interest in jazz. He established the Riff (jazz) Band in 2002 and co-founded the Cairo Jazz Festival in 2009 as well as producing jazz shows at esteemed Cairo music venues. After moving to London in 2014\, he joined the local jazz scene and\, with a taste for experimentation\, brought to life a genre everyone loved unconditionally and a concept welcomed by everyone; The Egyptian Jazz Projekt. This music venture is a merge between songs from 1950s Egypt and America in a new fresh jazz arrangements. \nRegistration will close 24 hours before the lecture starts. Registration does not include any future lectures in this series.

SUMMARY:Palestinian Fatayer with Nadia Tommalieh
DESCRIPTION:The universal practicality of packing deliciousness into a portable dough package ranges from Cornish pasties to empanadas to fatayer\, a type of savory pie eaten throughout the Middle East. In this class\, NADIA TOMMALIEH will guide you through the Palestinian take on this most perfect of mezze. You’ll layer a citrusy spinach filling into dough triangles to make fatayer sabanekh\, fold cheese and herbs into boat-shaped fatayer jebneh\, and make open-faced spiced beef sfeeha. \nThis is a live\, hands-on cooking class held in your kitchen via Zoom. Class is meant to be as interactive as it would be at our table\, with the instructor teaching you how to prepare each recipe. Each class ticket is for one kitchen\, and we welcome group cooking on the same screen. To learn more about how class will go visit our FAQ PAGE. \n\nThere are two options for gathering ingredients for this class! You can shop for your own ingredients or we are happy to pre-measure ingredients and assemble them into a 4-serving kit. And if you like to sip wine while you cook\, consider adding a lovingly paired bottle with your kit! \nYou can preview the ingredients and equipment needed by FOLLOWING THIS LINK. One week before class we will send out a detailed shopping list\, and a few days before class we will email you a detailed recipe packet and Zoom link. All classes are listed in Pacific Time.
