Director: Shilan Saadi
Türkiye, Iran, Russia, 2024, 85’, DCP, color
Kurdish with Turkish, English subtitles
“In her documentary film, Kurdish director Shilan follows the lives of Yazidi refugee girls who survived the Sinjar massacre and lived in a Turkish camp five years ago. As the girls scatter across Europe, Shilan tells a powerful story of resilience and survival, exploring the rich history of the Kurds and shedding light on the ongoing displacement of the Yazidi community.” ISIS attacked the Yezidi people because of their religion and beliefs in 2014. At least 300,000 out of the 500,000-population fled to the Sinjar Mountains.

In 1998 Ben Jakober and Yannick Vu collaborated on an obvious remake of Marcel Duchamp’s Roue de Bicyclette, his first “readymade” object. Duchamp combined a bicycle wheel, a fork and a stool to create a machine which served no purpose, subverting accepted norms of art.
