Time:
6:30 PM - 8:30 PM
Location:
East Gallery, Maison Française, Buell Hall

Join French-Palestinian-Algerian filmmaker and actress Lina Soualem for a screening of her film Bye Bye Tiberias. Set between past and present, Bye Bye Tiberias weaves together contemporary imagery, family footage from the 1990s, and historical archives to portray four generations of courageous Palestinian women. Through their enduring bonds, they preserve their stories and legacy, despite exile, dispossession, and heartbreak.

This event is part of In the Middle: Women Documenting Arab Struggles, a short series exploring identity, memory, displacement, and resilience through powerful narratives that connect Francophone and Arab perspectives.
