Sep 27—Oct 2, 2019 | BAM Rose Cinema
Contemporary Arab Cinema Film Series at BAM
The beauty, complexity, and diversity of Arab culture shines through in this second annual survey of vital new works from some of the Middle East and North Africa’s boldest and most innovative filmmakers. Grappling unflinchingly with issues of prejudice, women’s rights, ethnic identity, sociopolitical upheaval, history, and tradition, the eclectic array of documentaries and narratives featured here are by turns personal, political, funny, and fervent dispatches from an ever-evolving region.
