JOANA HADJITHOMAS & KHALIL JOREIGE: Memories Unlocked Lebanese Rocket Society & Civil War| Sarde #69

Описание: Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige are filmmakers, artists and "researchers", as they like to say. Their unique approach to their craft has allowed them to uncover hidden historical gems that were forgotten by our collective memory, and tackle and expose intergenerational issues that arise from the open wound of the Lebanese Civil War.

In this Sarde, we spoke about the following:
"Memory Box" their newest film now in cinemas, which tackles how three generations dealt with the trauma of the Lebanese Civil War
Their award winning documentary "The Lebanese Rocket Society" and how it came to be
One generation’s difficulty/inability/reluctance to talk about the Lebanese Civil War to another
How COVID affected the industry and how cinemas are the only common places left in the country
