🔴 𝐀𝐫𝐰𝐚 𝐀𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐚 in 𝐓𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐛 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐡: 𝐼𝑛 𝑠̌𝑒 𝑣𝑒𝑑𝑛𝑜 𝑜𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑗𝑎, 2023, 28’

Film 𝐼𝑛 𝑠̌𝑒 𝑣𝑒𝑑𝑛𝑜 𝑜𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑗𝑎 je mogočna meditacija o dolgoročnih posledicah francoskih jedrskih poskusov v južni Alžiriji. Podaja presunljivo in prepričljivo sliko skupnosti, ki jo je oblikovala njena zgodovina, ne da bi jo omejila. V vasi Mertoutek visoko v gorovju Hoggar v alžirski južni Sahari se pridružimo skupnosti Escamaran, ko pripovedujejo svoje zgodbe in svoje razumevanje tega, kaj pomeni živeti s kolonialno zastrupljenostjo. Režiserja Arwa Aburawa in Turab Shah postavita pokrajino v vlogo priče in protagonista ter pretanjeno raziskujeta pozabljeno zgodovino, ki še vedno živi v okolju in telesih prebivalcev Mertouteka. Film, ki preobrne francoski narativ o tehnološkem zmagoslavju, se vrača na kraj eksplozij, da bi raziskal čas, pravico, dekolonizacijo in odpornost v soočenju s trajnim strupenim kolonializmom.

Film 𝑂𝑑 𝑛𝑒𝑘𝑑𝑎𝑗 𝑠𝑚𝑜 𝑣𝑒𝑑𝑒𝑙𝑖, 𝑣 𝑘𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑜 𝑠𝑚𝑒𝑟 𝑝𝑖ℎ𝑎 𝑣𝑒𝑡𝑒𝑟 raziskuje materialne učinke sevanja, tako fizično kot metaforično. Na osnovi raziskav lokalnega jedrskega fizika Khalila Thabayneha preiskuje morebitno zakopavanje jedrskih odpadkov in prisotnost nenaravnega sevanja na območju Hebrona v Palestini. Z rdečimi plastičnimi filtri, nameščenimi pred objektiv kamere, so na različnih mestih nastali različni odtenki rdeče barve, ki naredijo stopnjo radioaktivnosti vidno. Posredovanje informacij je na različne načine ovirano, zadržano ali odloženo, zato se film posveti vprašanjem reprezentacije in posredovanja. Cezij-137, nevidni, a smrtonosni izotop lahko razumemo kot sinekdoho za bolj neoprijemljivo nevidnost – sistemska omrežja moči in nadzora v regiji – in delo postane meditacija o tem, kako pojasniti tisto, česar se ne da posneti, a je neizprosno.

🔴 𝐀𝐫𝐰𝐚 𝐀𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐚 and 𝐓𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐛 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐡: 𝐴𝑛𝑑 𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑙𝑙, 𝑖𝑡 𝑟𝑒𝑚𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑠, 2023, 28’

A powerful meditation on the afterlives of French nuclear tests in southern Algeria, 𝐴𝑛𝑑 𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑙𝑙, 𝑖𝑡 𝑟𝑒𝑚𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑠 offers a captivating and compelling picture of a community shaped but not circumscribed by its history. In Mertoutek, a village nestled in the Hoggar Mountains and summoning the landscape as a witness and protagonist, the directors Arwa Aburawa and Turab Shah sensitively explore this forgotten history, which continues to live in the ecology and bodies of Mertoutek’s residents. Inverting the French narrative of technological triumph, the film returns to the site of the detonations to explore time, justice, decolonization, and resilience in the face of enduring toxic colonialism.

🔴 𝐈𝐧𝐚𝐬 𝐇𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐢: 𝑊𝑒 𝐻𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝐴𝑙𝑤𝑎𝑦𝑠 𝐾𝑛𝑜𝑤𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑊𝑖𝑛𝑑’𝑠 𝐷𝑖𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛, 2019, 11’57”

𝑊𝑒 𝐻𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝐴𝑙𝑤𝑎𝑦𝑠 𝐾𝑛𝑜𝑤𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑊𝑖𝑛𝑑’𝑠 𝐷𝑖𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 explores the material effects of radiation, both physically and metaphorically. Following research conducted by a local nuclear physicist, Khalil Thabayneh, the film probes the possible burial of nuclear waste and the presence of manmade radiation in the Hebron District of Palestine. By placing red plastic filter sheets in front of the camera lens in various locations, different shades of red are generated that make visible the levels of radioactivity. In various ways, the delivery of this information is then thwarted, withheld, or delayed, and the film comes to turn on issues of representation and conveyance. The isotope Cesium 137, invisible but deadly, can be seen as a synecdoche for a more ungraspable invisibility – the systemic networks of power and control in the region – and the work becomes a meditation on how to account for the unfilmable but inexorable.
