A Fidai Film

الفيلم عمل فدائي

Kamal Aljafari

Investigating the looting of Palestinian films which took place in Beirut in 1982, the film uses this event as a premise in order to make visible materials hidden in Israeli archives, and proposes a counter-narrative of a continuous history of appropriation.

اجتاح الجيـش الإسـرائيلي بيـروت فـي صيـف 1982 واقتحم مركـز الأبحـاث الفلسـطيني ونهب أرشـيفه برمته.انطلاقاً مـن هـذا الحـدث، يستكشـف الفيلـم عمـل الصـورة البصريـة لهـذا النهـب ويوظف صـورا مـوجـودة حاليـا فـي أرشـيف الإحتلال.
