Wajib (2017)
After years abroad in Italy, Shadi returns to his native Nazareth. But this is no spectacular homecoming. He's back somewhat begrudgingly to honour his "wajib" (or duty) to hand out invitations to his sister's wedding with his father. The simmering tension between the two — who are often stuck in a car, more often than not in traffic — builds, exposing the sometimes-comic chasms that exist between men who live in different worlds but share an unshakable bond.

Born in Brooklyn to Palestinian refugee parents, Soraya decides to journey to the country of her ancestry when she discovers that her grandfather's savings have been frozen in a Jaffa bank account since his 1948 exile.

Disconnect (2020)
In “Spaces #3”, 7 internationally acclaimed directors shot, after commissioning by the Thessaloniki International Film Festival, a short film at home, making their own timely comment on the new reality that we live in. The project is inspired by the book “Species of Spaces” by the French novelist, filmmaker, documentalist, and essayist, Georges Perec and the days of quarantine. The idea is to create a film at home, using the environment, the people or the animals in that space. The only outdoor areas that may be used are outdoor living spaces, such as the terrace, the garden, the balcony and the stairwell. “Disconnect” is Annemarie Jacir’s submission.

A Few Crumbs For Birds (2005)
Ruwaysched is a no man's land at the border. The last village in Jordan before Iraq... I went there without a real scenario. I was looking for a story for my film for a couple of days until Anne-Marie, the director of photography, played a song for me from an Iraqi-Palestinian band while our car stalled at the Iraqi border. (Nassim Amaouche)

Commissioned by the Locarno Film Festival for its 75th anniversary, 11 international filmmakers were invited to create a ‘Postcard from the Future’ from their respective countries.

An Explanation: And Then Burn the Ashes (2006)
An architectural exploration of Columbia University in New York, where buildings only reflect each other, space is restricted, and objects concealed or only partially revealed. Small, hidden imperfections. Set against a montage of real phone messages received by Columbia University faculty, the viewer's imagination contributes to this portrait reflecting an atmosphere of American college campuses today.
