difficult to be an israeli filmmaker because being an israeli filmmaker people like to accept you do talk all the time about the palestinian israeli conflict you're not allowed to do films about any other subject other than the palestinian israeli conflict are the holocaust and sometimes when you want to do a film about something else it's a bit problematic. usually finds a way. come up with their crazy idea i'm sure i won't be hable to do it people are telling me that it's too dangerous and then i try to do it and then i keep going. where does the back to your. own you don't want.
1:37 pm
to have. questions. the palestinian israeli conflict is sorrow almost like a cliche nowadays i wanted to show just a humanistic part of it a good. idea. and a bomb racial. remark wrecker. one morning i remember like waking up with a question what will happen if they used their whenever i am in area located near the separation wall because you know there is a location based app which totally ignores physical boundaries richard ignores any

1:39 pm
how can our help disrupt a longstanding prejudice that question also drives director ahead jamal. living in a country like afghanistan it's it's not something easy of course for anybody not. for not for any human being in the. d'anna dedicated her film. to the women of afghanistan. in 2009. then afghan president hamid karzai approved a law that once again after years of taliban rule curtailed women's rights so deonna took to the streets to protest provided the impetus for her film.
1:40 pm
this law was something fool of why lands against women and against human it said something like this that if a woman leave her house without her husband permission the husband can be warse that why. was the was 6 that was the attack he was and i saw that tough guy that was the tough guy the other guy and i said that's something i must watch out for you might say i did so was was like what we are trying to do as afghan women is to
1:41 pm
make. space for women to breed to to to be. outside of there was of the house to face the society to be present on the street. for video artist in a small task a film is a political instrument a means to create change. you frequently travel to the west bank to meet men living there. really maybe. there is something i missed this year that is you often it's something. the in. you know not that for us to do all. the. yarn it's going to be no not at all you are so gentle and quiet and then just all
1:42 pm
of you. in dating website unfortunately there are no palestinian women and so if palestinian guy wants to use tin there is results come from the israeli side and when he after times like almost always when they try to talk to an israeli woman she would like. she she she wouldn't engage in conversation so the men i managed were actually really happy that a news really woman is happy to talk to them so you haven't left the gaza strip for 20 years and if you would like to visit me in tell of the. girls. certainly you are go to care for them you would be very much and your promise you it would be
1:43 pm
a very big question. about that relationships between your body and son greenboard. so i began to be like passionate about the idea of internet as metta national space their concern for this kind of subversive artistic actions and like yeah the idea of that like it's so weird like that they were still. fighting over a piece of land in this you know advanced times when everything is so web based. back to germany and the war and see against sociological study. instead of a political conflict her film shows people who fall into society's press. when i
1:44 pm
started to. come back in the 1st moments in the 1st moment i saw i was in there and it was a people i was in the very beginning a little bit shocked like with how the some places. i don't know like. in this day as sometimes there were drac addicts from the injections of healing and i was really shocked actually this was my 1st moment but somehow after a while i got used to the ambient and what i loved is that i really got close to the people i was portraying just one of the residents of the social housing tower. got really close to was a big enough. cause
1:45 pm
. in this is just a show business. let's. sometimes in fact there are scenes that show my protagonists and moments very intimate moments i think it's very necessary to show this moments because it's it's the life of them and why should i make like a different tell a different story that's not the truth. here . so i tell. you so much no. but. yeah oh for oil for me. i'm. yeah but it's worth it and it's moving in my neck and you know.
1:46 pm
which. you force state. machine on my i felt that their lives. that's maybe of our lives. it can happen something very hard and he lose your say so she's careful to preserve the protagonist's dignity this is just leave us to frighten off benghazi from this into can free t.v. now and. then as leaders then often cook the. last instruction and in how it's just been interested. and mitch still need me just need to shoot floyd of. their day each minute frightening scene then to now been. unleashed by so much to. not measure with my names.
1:47 pm
really fighting to get out of it but having this positive. dion's ahead jamal also knows what it means to keep fighting and to stay positive. the director is a canadian citizen. yet she decided to return to her homeland of afghanistan to live and work as a filmmaker. we didn't have any screening place in called police after. suicide attack 2 french institute that's why we we make these cinema very small plays very cosy we have one a special day for women and it's good because many women are not allowed to be in a place with other men but this place is good because someday they can come with their friends and watch films without. any imitation.
1:48 pm

1:50 pm
ward you can see how much software is in their eyes. like children of my country. they don't know really what is happiness. the they never experience happiness. 3 of these young filmmakers believe in the power of hope. i think i wanted to sort of challenge borders in all senses the rich. people are starting to think about you know gender fluid and gender queer and all these kind of movements are happening now days so i think that i want the next thing to be an in nationality fluid like there won't be any borders and you want to have to answer the question
1:51 pm
where are you from or you can just say answer these questions and saying i'm from the world or care i am nationality fluid. oftentimes my field are 3rd appointee. people like really need human connection you know our society is going. more and more towards dark times where people are really really lonely you see that in the u.s. a lot for example in naked america would just give people like the stage to talk i'm just basically giving them sort of free therapy this is how trauma i mother me. sitting here. so i am. interviewing nature americans about.
1:52 pm
masculinity and politics and intimacy and love and loneliness and what does it mean to be american it's frustrating about president trott and more when i think about. such a lot how yes like 15 or 16 actually asks us to bring our success. are you enjoying us yes why do you enjoy a. documentary feel my careers often times get accused did they use their characters but i don't think that's true because if someone agree to being in your film he or she have a motivation the motivation is usually dead they want to be listened and heard. german documentary filmmaker. loved listening to her protagonists. i
1:53 pm
really got attached to their stories and i was really wanting for example cal had to stop drinking. to go to democrat to fulfill her dream the better ness i was helping her to to put all the smaller things on the war i really enjoyed the time with them to see me. and to leave me. i love my protagonist saw the movie and they loved it very much they also said like i feel patrick very aware. i think when i make movies generally i don't really have a particular message because i think everyone sees a film different and has its own method but what i like is to get like to show a public or to make it possible to other to but supposed to see paid in their lives and the people lives a partridge so to to open this window. afghan filmmaker dion as i have
1:54 pm
jamal opens a window onto a war torn country in the world we know little about. and needs me because i'm the one that i can go to the street and fight for today i don't want her to suffer. as much as i do. what i wish. to do is to influence my people to my art in my life so. i choose to be in my country. despite all the dangers i know when i leave my house maybe i can come back and then even. when i feel depressed or down. i think it. it it's not worth
1:55 pm
it. just for a good thing but it's not worth it life is so precious. oftentimes i get asked whether there's a border between the really i'm me and like my persona in the movies like the character of me in the movies. i guess that in my films i try to portray women as both vulnerable but also filled with empathy and. more power for than you would think i wore and could be. and thank. gosh.
