..Kamal ALJAFARI, 78 min, 2024 - Palestine, Germany, Qatar, Brazil, France
An introspective documentary about the suppression and erasure of Palestinian history. Constituted from an assemblage of archival footage taken from Beirut’s Palestine Research Centre, which was seized and looted during Israeli occupation in 1982, the film’s essence is emblematized by the translation of its title: ‘one who dedicates his life to a cause.’
An important and devastating meditation on the history of Palestine, A Fidai Film is an experimental documentary which resists the conventions of genre by presenting fragmented sequences of archival footage without context, chronology, or narrative. The amalgamation of ambient and non-diegetic auditory elements heightens the film’s urgency, while images are spliced with writings from the Palestinian author and activist Ghassan Kanafani.
