Hawiye Festival | Lecture by Sameh Basul
What distinguishes the creations of the new generation of young Palestinian film directors?
What is the place of political versus personal identity in their films?
The films of the young generation reflect individualism and self-expression, breaking free from social shackles.
The young directors in a certain way legitimize the multiplicity of identities and the search for personal identity although the collective political identity remains as DNA that leaves its mark in one way or another on their works.
In this lecture we talk about the courage to take risks and the diversity of identities – between the creation of reality and its reflection.
