Join us for a special screening of an intimate documentary featuring Emmy-nominated actress Hiam Abbass (Succession, Ramy, Blade Runner 2049) as she returns to her Palestinian village with her daughter after years of pursuing her acting career in France. The film explores the powerful legacy of separation across four generations of Palestinian women.

Following the screening, there will be a conversation with renowned Egyptian film critic Joseph Fahim and the film’s director, Lina Soualem, a French-Palestinian-Algerian filmmaker. Soualem’s documentary offers a poignant exploration of family, exile, and identity.

As we approach a pivotal moment in the upcoming November presidential election, this film is an essential reflection on displacement and the shared experiences of marginalized communities. Don’t miss the chance to engage with these timely and important stories.
