Q & A w/ Basma Alsharif & Erick Lyle
In geopolitics and cinema, conventional expectations often define what we witness. But in everyday perceptions, thoughts, dreams and imaginations, there is a unpredictable human element...the darting eye, the fragmented memory, the partial understanding, the multiple understanding, the movements through space and time. Why then should cinema or geopolitics meet or even address the expectations imposed upon them? These movies from Palestine, Cuba, Turkey, Northern Ireland, Israel and the US operate and create on their own terms using chance, defiance, multiples, instabilities, unflinching gazes, asymmetry, obliteration and beauty... where they can find it.
