Synopsis

Filmvisning og workshop om å forestille seg frigjøring og rettferdighet – spesielt i Palestina.

Screenings

Filmvisning og kreativ workshop. Arrangementet er på engelsk.

-----

Film director Dalia AlKury will run a screening of her experiments of imagining a free and liberated Palestine, as part of her PhD research at the Norwegian Film School. 

The screening will be followed by a workshop with a collective meditation for the audience to dream and imagine their own version of liberation and justice. 

-----

Dalia´s character driven practice pendulums between staging memories and simulating past experiences , to staging dreams and hopeful speculation of our collective futures. Both approaches from staging in documentary to speculating through fiction – are deeply rooted in pausing the question “what if” to offer another possible narrative.

Dalia uses filmmaking not as a way to document reality, but as a way of commanding it, through active and radical imagining of justice and liberation.
