2019 Images Festival: “Feeling Resistance” Shorts Programme

Toronto Arab Film is excited to co-present the “Feeling Resistance” Shorts Programme as part of the 2019 Images Festival.

How do we manifest resistance through the spaces we occupy? How does resistance manifest itself on our bodies, our minds, our souls? What are the human materials and psychic energies that provide us with the agency to show up for our collective wills? How does the power of shared resistance allow us to more truthfully feel ourselves? How do our bodies and the spaces they occupy come to be shaped or re-shaped by our defiance? How have our bodies become active sites of violence? How can we resist this exploitation of our inherent nature in a way that speaks to our vulnerabilities, our livedness, our freedom? This program sees these questions as points of entry to explore, without boundary, the myriad ways in which resistance feels. – Sarah-Tai Black
