Now into its seventh year, we’re so excited to welcome back AWAN Festival into our building for 2022, from Wed 2 – Sat 12 Mar.
We begin on Wed 2 Mar with an evening of live music and poetry, exploring the themes of love and identity through ASWAT (voices in Arabic) of our poets, Yomn Al-Kaisi, Amal Khalidi, Shaima Alterkawi, lisa luxx and Intibint.
On Sat 5 Mar, Emilie Serri’s award winning film Damascus Dreams will be screening in our Studio space, followed by a pre-recorded Q&A. Palestinian filmmaker Samaher Alqadi’s As I Want will also be screened later in the day, following the uprising of women during and after the Arab Spring, and their fight for liberation.
AWAN Short Films are a great opportunity to catch three new releases from rising filmmakers Zaina Bseiso with When Light Is Displaced, Faiza Ambah with Nour Shams and Suzannah Mirghani with Al-Sit.
