Program Guide Program guide The Lebanese Film Festival Association is a NSW registered non-profit organisation, established in 2011 to provide a dedicated platform for the showcasing of Lebanese cinema in Australia. Since its first edition in 2012, the Lebanese Film Festival has become a growing foreign film festival that attracts over 3,000 patrons per year. Through the Festival, the Association hope to challenge the perception of Lebanon, its people, its culture and its traditions by providing an avenue for Australian society to hear the stories of Lebanon and its large diaspora through the art of film. By the end of our fifth edition this year, we would have screened 130 Lebanese films, ranging from student short films, to internationally acclaimed feature films. The Lebanese Film Festival, being based in Bankstown, also seeks to maintain and grow its local presence and contribute to the city becoming a centre of the arts and culture. This contribution will allow greater access to foreign film for the Greater Western Sydney region whilst also drawing Sydneysiders to experience the great centres of Sydney’s west. As always, we invite all of you, sponsors, patrons and the public, to share with us your feedback, ideas, inspirations and any other comments which would help our team grow and improve. 3 Dear Festival attendees, It is with great excitement that I welcome you to our fifth edition of the St.George Bank Lebanese Film Festival. What was once a small dream, has now turned into an annual event drawing thousands of audiences to Bankstown, Central Sydney, Canberra and Adelaide. This year, we have another exciting line up of Lebanese short, documentary and feature films, with personal favourites being 3000 Nights and A Time in Life, set in my favourite Lebanese coastal town of Batroun. This year, we’ve seen a shift away from Lebanese diaspora films, with a strong contingent of films coming from Lebanon itself. It is great to see the ongoing growth in Lebanon’s film industry amid the challenging realities of Lebanese life. As the country of four million citizens accommodates two million refugees, and a government and economy in paralysis, it is heart warming and encouraging to know that there is ongoing investment in film, with Lebanon’s profile at the Cannes Film Festival and other international film festivals continuously growing. It is with great pride that I again welcome audiences from across Sydney to Bankstown. I invite you to make the most of your Festival experience and sample the great food and entertainment offerings also available in our great city. Enjoy your Festival experience! Camille Lattouf Director, Lebanese Film Festival 4 - Lebanese Film Festival 2016 I find it hard to believe that this is the fifth year of the Lebanese Film Festival and my association with the festival over the past four years continues to bring me joy. The team of Julia, Jessica and Camille is inspiring. Their love of Film and their dedication to enhancing our knowledge of Lebanese culture and its people is something I personally am deeply grateful for. We live in a troubled world and its extremely important to be reminded that all nations share the same humanity and needs and desires. Our relationships with friends, families and communities is what sustains us and film reminds us of this. Lebanon is experiencing very difficult times but its filmmakers continue to flourish and share their stories with the world. Central to Bankstown since its inception, the Lebanese Film Festival continues to be an important part of its cultural life, bringing outsiders to the area and providing entertainment to its own. I am proud to be the Patron of the Lebanese Film Festival. It has enhanced my life.

  • Rewriting Arabic Songs | Norient.Com 4 Oct 2021 21:52:50
    Rewriting Arabic Songs | norient.com 4 Oct 2021 21:52:50 Rewriting Arabic Songs by Ahmad Zatari Using folk songs from Lebanon, Egypt, Palestine, and Kuwait, Yasmine Hamdan’s self-titled new album revives the music of the region with an unheard of frankness and freshness. Yasmine Hamdan’s music re-addresses Arabic traditions in a way that could almost be seen as an affront to how we perceive the Arab vocal identity. Born in 1976, Hamdan has undertaken the challenge of affirming and rewriting Arabic musical heritage. In her new self-titled album (produced by Kwaidan Records), she continues to demolish the oft used style of verbose praise or lamentations about love, the homeland, nature, pets, last night, and the chosen self (see Norient article on Women and Pop in the Arab World). «Samar» - Yasmine Hamdan (2012) Soap Kills She partnered with Zeid Hamdan in 1997 forming the band Soap Kills. At the time, Beirut was trying to scrub up its schizophrenic glamor with an imaginary soap. Their band was the underground music scene’s response to this. https://norient.com/stories/rewriting-arabic-songs Page 1 of 6 Rewriting Arabic Songs | norient.com 4 Oct 2021 21:52:50 Soap Kills was a platform for expression in which music was just one element. From the beginning, they worked against illusionary beauty that was «part of the ideology of advanced capitalism and distorted awareness serving social hegemony», as German philosopher and musicologist Theodor Adorno put it. Violations of «socially acceptable» beauty, as Adorno said, become possible through avant-garde music that safeguards the truth.

At the academic level, FAFS’s strategic plan was revisited in a faculty retreat held on February 12, 2010. The meeting assessed the progress of FAFS, its future trajectory and plans, and approved a revised FAFS strategic plan with a new mission, vision and seven goals aligned with the university strategy. The plan included the establishment of FAFS centers of excellence on Food Security, Food Safety, Zoonoses, and Organic Farming as well the establishment of a School of Food and Nutrition within FAFS. Changing the name of the Faculty was also suggested to better reflect its present disciplines and identity. Furthermore, a strategic plan for AREC as an AUB campus in Bekaa was presented to the BOT during its visit to FAFS in May 2010. In pursuit of accreditation of programs, the Nutrition and Food Sciences department completed a comprehensive self-study report on the Nutrition and Dietetics- Coordinated Program (NDCP) and solicited consultative services and feedback from the Commission on Accreditation for Dietetics Education (CADE).

  • La Guerre Civile Libanaise Au Cinéma Et Les Circulations Transculturelles
    DOSSIER THÉMATIQUE : Formes narratives et co-production dans les cinémas des pays arabes LA GUERRE CIVILE LIBANAISE AU CINÉMA ET LES CIRCULATIONS TRANSCULTURELLES Thomas Richard Chercheur associé, Centre Michel de l’Hospital, Université Clermont-Auvergne Abstract | Les circulations des cinéastes libanais et de leurs œuvres, fortement marquées par une dimension internationale, et par une insertion au sein des réseaux du film d’art et d’essai, portent la marque d’un métissage entre normes visuelles et mémorielles locales et issues de cette circulation, au sein d’un univers culturel globalisé. Ce faisant, ces œuvres, si elles sont enrichies de ces apports, peuvent sembler développer leurs récits par rapport aux attentes du public prescripteur des festivals internationaux, au risque que celles-ci deviennent des contraintes et au risque de sembler localement hors sol. Mots-clés | Liban, guerre civile, mémoire, transnational, influence Abstract | The trajectories of Lebanese film directors and their work, characterized by a strong international dimension, and by their insertion within the art film networks, bear the mark of interactions between local and global visual and memorial norms linked to these trajectories, in a globalized cultural environment. These films, though enriched by this international dimension, may appear to develop their narrative following the demands of international festival audiences, risking that these demands become constraints, and at the risk of possible loss of contact with local audiences.
