queer short film: "راكب راكب إنترنت | wifi rider"

jordan | 13 minutes | 2020 | documentary short audio in arabic; english subtitles embedded

راكب راكب إنترنت | wifi rider, directed by roxy rezvany, introduces us to shukri lawrence, a young, queer palestinian-armenian fashion designer and photographer. shukri, who was born in east jerusalem and now lives in jordan, came to fame through his instagram account @wifirider, which he created as a teenager to share his style, fashion, and takes on pop culture. the film, shot on 16mm, also integrates footage from shukri’s early life as well, with shukri’s voiceover to tell us about his story and the clothing label named trashy clothing that he founded with his co-designer omar braika, who is also palestinian. the displacement and threat of state violence that shukri faces is felt throughout the docu-short; he begins by telling us how as a child he dreamed of moving to france, where he thought he would find freedom from his experience in israel. however, over the course of his adolescence, shukri began to understand that while he, like all palestinians currently, has no real home, he prefers his life to still be grounded in the arab world where he still has community in the palestinian diaspora. - deepa's full review, including content notes at the end

Burned to the Ground: the Canadian village incinerated by record temperatures, June 8, 2023

The small village of Lytton in British Columbia hit the global media when it smashed Canada's highest temperature ever recorded in June 2021, at 49.6 degrees centigrade. Two days later, the entire village had burned to the ground. In the ashes of their homes, this cohesive but diverse community which includes a majority of First Nations residents had to confront the realities of climate displacement by being relocated away from their ancestral lands. Through the stories of three main protagonists we find a community searching for answers while relying on a collective spirit to heal. The Guardian

queer short film: "beirut dreams in color"

queer short cuts is a biweekly newsletter where i share queer & trans short film recommendations. i'm featuring some of my favorite films on tumblr because why not

lebanon | 2022 | 28 minutes | documentary short audio in english & arabic; english subtitles available

beirut dreams in color, directed by michael collins, is not a happy film, but it is a beautiful and necessary one. the docu-short follows lebanese indie rock band mashrou’ leila, who have, since their inception, made their politics central to their music. their lead singer, hamed sinno, is heralded as the first openly gay rock star in the arab world, and mashrou’ leila played sold-out shows throughout the swana region (southwest asia & north africa) in the 2010s. the film weaves their story together with the tragic story of sarah hegazi, an egyptian queer activist, and with the story of helem, a lebanese lgbtq+ organization led by tarek zeidan, as their community in beirut faced a disaster in 2020. deepa's full review, including content notes at the end - highly recommend looking at the content notes

hamed sinno is on instagram @hamed.sinno. you can also read more about sarah hegazi’s legacy and the community that grieves her.

I watched Rebel Moon: Part Two – The Scargiver.

The film felt less “awkward” to me than Part One which, although I agree had flaws, I enjoyed and thought was unreasonably criticized. In my opinion, Part Two’s pacing was better, it was more suspenseful, more “epic”, and there were a few rousing moments. That said, it makes sense since A Child of Fire was mostly about recruiting and introducing a team of warriors while this movie is about them actually fighting.

It was already obvious to me that a lot of work had gone into this project, but then watching Creating a Universe - The Making of Rebel Moon confirmed this. They spent so much time building this world, its people, cultures, creatures, technologies, languages, etc. It feels like everything and everyone we see on screen was carefully crafted and has a detailed backstory. Also, they built a spaceship and an entire village, dug a river, created a field, organically grew wheat, and had the actors actually harvest it in the film! I think that’s impressive.

Zack Snyder had been building this universe in his mind for years, drew his own storyboards, and even assembled custom camera lenses because he had a very precise idea of what he wanted the movie to look like. It’s heartwarming to see that people (cast and crew) who worked with him defend the project and say how invested, respectful, and passionate the director was. For him and for the many equally creative, talented, and dedicated teams involved, I’m glad the artistic vision they shared at least had a chance to become a reality.

As imperfect (but honestly far from being as bad as people keep saying) as what we’ve seen so far may be, I still believe the saga has a lot of potential. We’ll only be able to properly judge it after seeing the long, R-rated versions of the films anyway (and hopefully a Part Three)...

In the end, though, I realize what I truly care about, more than how the story of Rebel Moon is told, is its universe as a whole, but also the passion of the many people who put their hearts and souls into bringing it to life to such a high level of detail. It exists, and as someone who’s been building many worlds in my own mind since I was a child, that makes me happy.

#go zack & co. live your dreams. #do it for all of us #rebel moon #the scargiver #rebel moon part two the scargiver #rebel moon part 2 #I recommend the short documentary because what they did is truly impressive #zack snyder #possibly one of the few genuinely wholesome people in the film industry #if that’s true it feels like he 'deserves' this you know? #rebel moon however doesn’t deserve the hate
