    Our Songs Were Ready for All Wars to Come

    Noor ABED 2021 Palestine color 20min DCP
    The film explores the critical stance of folklore as a source of knowledge and its possible connection to alternative social and representational models in Palestine. How can folklore become a standard emancipatory tool for people to overturn dominant discourses, reclaim their history and land, and rewrite reality as they know it?
