SUMMARY:Visit Al Am'ari Refugee Camp virtually with Eyewitness Palestine
DESCRIPTION:Located east of Ramallah\, Al Am’ari Camp is one of the smallest refugee camps in the West Bank\, with a registered population of 15\,315\, including 5\,048 children. Despite its small size\, the camp encapsulates the severe challenges faced by Palestinian refugees living under Israeli military occupation.\nThe residents of Al Am’ari frequently endure invasions by the Israeli Occupation Forces\, further exacerbating their already precarious living conditions. These incursions disrupt daily life and instill fear and uncertainty\, particularly among children\, who bear the brunt of the trauma.

The film provides a detailed account of the incident\, which resulted in the deaths of 34 American crew members and injuries to 174 others. Through interviews with survivors and experts\, the documentary uncovers the subsequent cover-up by the U.S. government and highlights the enduring quest for justice and recognition by the survivors. It is a poignant exploration of a dark chapter in American naval history and the resilience of those who lived through it.

SUMMARY:Virtual Movie: Homeland: Iraq Year Zero
DESCRIPTION:In February 2002 – about a year before the U.S. invasion – Iraqi filmmaker Abbas Fahdel traveled home from France to capture everyday life as his country prepared for war. He concentrated on family and friends\, including his 12-year-old nephew\, Haider\, as they went about their daily lives\, which had come to include planning for shortages of food\, water and power. No strangers to war\, the Iraqis thought they understood what was coming\, and could even manage to be grimly humorous about what they felt would likely be a major and lengthy inconvenience. And then\, the war began. \n  \nWhen Fahdel resumed filming in 2003\, two weeks after the invasion\, daily activities have come to a near standstill\, the city is overrun with foreign soldiers\, and many areas of Baghdad had been closed off to ordinary citizens. Iraqis endure\, seemingly as unwitting as Americans themselves about what further tragedy awaits. Fahdel’s epic yet intimate film paints a compelling portrait of people struggling to survive while their civilization\, dating back to ancient times\, is destroyed around them.

SUMMARY:Screening Online: ON LANDSCAPES\, RUINS AND PATTERNS OF REMEMBERING Curated by: Fawz Kabra
DESCRIPTION:Screening Online: Sept. 19 – 24\, 2024 \nRSVP: artearchive.org \nFREE / $5 suggested donation \nON LANDSCAPES\, RUINS AND PATTERNS OF REMEMBERING  is a program of video works that unfold a politics of image-making\, reviewing and recounting social and cultural histories as they are explored through contemporary frameworks. The program is prompted by a work from the ArteArchive—Toukan’s performance video\, Remind me to Remember to Forget (2006)\, after Mahmoud Darwish’s 1982 prose poem\, “Memory for Forgetfulness.” The artist proposes to reverse the act of writing and the will to remember\, consequently dispersing the written word and suspending it in memory and reimagination. \nRevisiting Toukan’s video eighteen years later\, in a global context that remains anxious with war and impending invasions\, Remind me to Remember to Forget is revisited in conversation with works by Alsharif\, Collins\, Hopinka\, Jacir\, and Namy. Through minimalist experiments and lyrical narratives the works address profound violences of colonial erasure of land and people\, the legacies of exile and dispersion\, and our relationship to objects and images when only image and replica remain. \n  \nIn their distinct structural explorations of cycles and repetitions\, these works deal with the promises and devastating blunders of modernity. They connect to land\, time\, and space in a contemporary world charged with a renewed authoritarian tendency that swings from guise and symbolism to blatant and annihilating power. Between lived experiences and replicated environments\, these works present a receding natural world\, real and imagined sites\, and archives that render the architectures of a modern time swept up in a coup of capitalist developments and techno-autocratic fascist regimes. \n  \nON LANDSCAPES\, RUINS AND PATTERNS OF REMEMBERING is co-presented with e-flux.
