Arab Film Festival: SHORTS 2 Ruya رؤيا (visions)

7:45 PM

Outstanding, world-class short film by some of the most talented filmmakers of the day, our boundary-pushing "Visions" short program returns as “Ruya رؤيا” – an assemblage of an all-female cast of directors who have pushed visual storytelling to the cutting-edge. Spanning a gamut of stories having to do with day-to-day Beiruti rooftop culture amidst the normalization of war and Jihadism’s quaking effect on the nuclear family; to a Sundance award-winning dark comedy as it takes the shape of the Syrian refugee experience in Lebanon and an awkward albeit sexy fever dream starring the all too expressive Algerian actor Slimane Dazi: Ruya رؤيا will at once invite you to peer into new frontiers of storytelling and landscapes of resonance whilst reminding you of the power of visionary Arab Women on the international indie film scene.

Indeed, the grief might bring on his death…
