Mizna’s 18th Twin Cities Arab Film Festival closes with a pair of special screenings and a reception copresented with the Walker.“Filmmakers make the light. There is always poetry in images and images in poetry: imagination, desire, steadfastness, and liberation are entangled into material manifestations of scenes, vignettes, soundscapes, lightscapes, stillness, and rhythm.” —Nasrin Himada
Curator Nasrin Himada imagines Palestinian and Indigenous artists’ films and videos as proposals for possible worlds made up of dreams, love for the land, and liberation. The program includes works by Kamal Aljafari, Basel Abbas and Ruanne Abou-Rahme, NIC Kay, Rhayne Vermette, Sky Hopinka, and Tacita Dean.
Following the screening, Himada and Anishinaabe-kwe curator Wanda Nanibush will discuss their values-grounded approaches to working with artists and ideas of land rights, liberation, and Indigenous self-determination.
