San Diego Arab Film Festival 2022


Revolutionary Baby takes place a night before Eid Al Fitr, in a fragmented Moroccan household. Fatou, the housemaid, shares a strong nurturing bond with the eldest of the family's, who suffers from an eating disorder. However, the mother, Narjisse, who is the head of the house, neglects her daughter's illness and disapproves of Fatou's protectiveness over her.
Narjisse, who gets carried away by her jealousy towards their bond, imposes a ruthless punishment to whoever who disagrees with her intolerant judgment.

San Diego Arab Film Festival 2021

Drawing upon his Iraqi-Jewish heritage, Michael Rakowitz critiques ongoing systems of colonization in his sculptural and participatory work. The artist recounts a formative memory from his childhood, when his mother took him to see reliefs depicting the lion hunt of Ashurbanipal in the Assyrian galleries at the British Museum and posed the question, “What is this doing here?” For Rakowitz, this moment crystalized his understanding of museums as places of extraction, colonization, and crime. In his work today, Rakowitiz explores ways to subvert the imperialist role of museums, interrogate the value they place on objects over people, and create ongoing systems for repair and accountability.

Michael Rakowitz: Haunting the West

Spanish director Jan Pauls brings to life a photograph taken by Emad Nassar in Gaza in 2015 depicting two girls being cared for by their father. What they call 'home' may be something else from now on.
