Foragers
March 6 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
FreeMilwaukee Premiere! / FREE FOR EVERYONE!
In her cinematic investigation into the Palestinian practice of foraging za’atar (a thyme-like herb) and ’akkoub (a wild artichoke-like plant), artist Jumana Manna reveals the perils involved in the preservation of Arab traditions under Israeli law. Her inventive blend of fiction, documentary and archival footage in Foragers coalesces into a warm portrait of a community whose daily activities resist continued repression.
(Jumana Manna, France, Arabic and Hebrew w/ English sub, 68 min, 2022, DCP)
