Filmscreening:
Videomappings: Palestine by Till Roeskens, 2008
The film will be followed by a
discussion with Mahmoud Issa, one of the people from Aida camp who was asked to
draw the maps
Till Roesken has asked people from Aida
Camp, to draw maps of how they see what is around them. The drawing process as
well as the stories related to the maps have been recorded on video. Alongside
with representations of the camp's history and it's surroundings, the main focus
is on stories about difficult ways: about the obstacles that make it
almost impossible to reach certain places, and how people try and sometimes
manage to get there anyway. This could be the first step of a study about the
resistence by going around.
