NOW SHOWING

THE SEED OF THE SACRED FIG
Shot entirely in secret, Mohammad Rasoulof’s award-winning thriller, THE SEED OF THE SACRED FIG, centers on a family thrust into the public eye when Iman is appointed as an investigating judge in Tehran. As political unrest erupts in the streets, Iman realizes that his job is even more dangerous than expected, making him increasingly paranoid and distrustful, even of his own wife Najmeh and daughters Sana and Rezvan.

FROM GROUND ZERO
From Ground Zero is a collection of 22 short films made in Gaza. Initiated by Palestinian director Rashid Masharawi, the project was born to give voice to 22 Gazan filmmakers to tell the untold stories of the current war on film.
Using a blend of animation, documentary, and fiction, they create a powerful testament to the steadfastness of the human spirit. This film serves as a remarkable reflection of how art can thrive even in the darkest times, showcasing the enduring spirit and creativity that emerge amid ongoing devastation.

“Film is an important means of communication. It is an art form that can unite us, define eras, influence change, and bring us comfort. Since I started coming to the Zinema, I always looked forward to seeing films about new cultures, innovative filmmaking, and odd and refreshing ways of telling stories. As a programmer, I try to find things that are, above all, interesting. I try to show stories you haven’t seen, perspectives that take space in your head for days after viewing. Movies that welcome, movies that push the boundaries, and movies that we can actively cheer or dance at. Most of my favorite cinematic memories have taken place in this building and I want to create that same thing for you.”
