Private Project

Jamal's Own Images from the Prison

Film reflects the view as a power device of culturally privileged Western elite, which creates the image of another to strengthen its own formula: to know = power. Inspired by texts by F. Fanon and Homi K. Bhabha I try to find out positions available to both.
The viewer will see images taken from the so-called "Open Prison", where Israeli government summoned the Muslim refugees from Sudan and Eritrea. Also, there are shots taken by a crew of international film students shooting a film about life and current situation one of them, Jamal Omar.
