INDIVIDUAL DATES & TIMES*
Additional time info:
May 3rd screening is PRECEDED BY the comedy short THE DELIVERY (2018, Jordan/UAE, 22 min.): In a troubled (fictional) Middle Eastern country, the President goes into hiding after receiving numerous threats from a rebel army faction. Mustafa, a delivery man on a tight schedule on the day of his engagement, inadvertently stumbles upon the President’s hiding place – an apartment in a run down corner of the city. He is immediately taken for an assassin, and repeatedly questioned and tortured by the fiercely loyal Captain Amin. Little do both of them know that Mustafa’s appearance is no coincidence at all.
May 4th screening is PRECEDED BY the short FAMILY OF TOO MANY (2018, USA, 14 min.): Bahar, an 8-year-old Iranian girl, believes she has caused the death of her grandmother. As she deals with her feelings of guilt, her parents decide to steal grandmother’s body. As Baha’is living in Shi’a Iran, the family risks everything when they spirit the body away in the middle of the night so that they may perform their prohibited religious rituals. In Iran of 1980s, all but one religion is condemned and this family of religious minority struggle to survive in the new circumstances.
Post-Screening Skype Q&A with director Assia Boundaoui.
