From MMFD:
The UK chapter of Citizens in a State would like to invite you to a screening of the movie Hamasat, by Maroun Baghdadi.
Hamasat follows the Lebanese poet Nadia Tueni (1935-1983) on a journey across different regions of war-torn Lebanon. The film depicts the fall of a country struggling to survive and find hope. At every station, between sites filled with poetry and nostalgia for a bygone era, the poet’s dashed dreams and idealized vision of her country coincide with the director’s own.
The screening will be followed by a political discussion regarding the situation in Lebanon, moderated by Youssef Salha.
Location: The Games Room at Heist Bank
Wed, September 8, 2021; 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM BST
Invitation is open to all, but RSVP is needed as space is limited.
