TunisiaEU in Jordan supports human rights film festival
The European Union in Jordan supports the 11th edition of Karama Film Festival that is taking place from 26 December to 7 January 2021. This year’s theme is “Memory of being”. Forty films of various genres and from all over the world are available.
On the festival’s website, the organizers explain that “as we face this global pandemic and the massive numbers of human lives lost, we have grown increasingly aware of the vulnerable communities amongst us and we have become attached to our elders who are the most vulnerable to this virus. These generations who have in their memories events of colonization, geographical change, rebellions, gender liberation, how the world came to be how it is today.
We believe that with the loss of these generations of “witnesses of history” we lose chunks of our history, and power that comes with knowing one’s history. This edition will focus on oral history, archival materials, films produced by or about our collective memory in all of its layers and artistic expression”.
