Ferran Domènech | Spain | Syria | 2024 | 52’
Naharina is a documentary on the Communal Resistance in Syrian Kurdistan where director Ferran Domènech explores the legacy of Mesopotamia’s peoples—Kurds, Arabs, Armenians and others who continue to build communes, cooperatives, women houses and alternative security models. Those peoples were called Naharina by the ancient Egyptians, meaning the people of the river. Now they face the drying out of the region’s lifeblood river because of Turkish dams.
- •A discussion with Phil Andreasmoore will take place after this screening.
Theatr Mwldan Film Society present: Land and Freedom Film Festival The inaugural TMFS Festival Weekend explores the themes of ‘Land and Freedom’. The power of cinema to transport us across the globe and to bring us stories from afar is testament to the place storytelling has in our lives. The selected films range from Mesopotamia to Kenya; deep time from the perspective of a solitary tree; conflict over the very ground we stand on; and an anthology of international animation shorts.
Special guests will appear for post screening Q&As as well as post film discussions for audiences. We hope the films stimulate and provoke visions of what 'land and freedom' might look like.
