Jaffa the Orange's Clockwork www.calihomes.com JAFFA THE ORANGE’S CLOCKWORK JAFFA CONTENT Jaffa, the orange’s clockwork narrates the visual history of the famous citrus fruit originated from Palestine and known worldwide for centuries as "Jaffa oranges". The history of the orange is the history of this land. Through photography and cinema, poetry, paintings, workers of the citruses’ industry and historians, memory and present mythologies, Palestinians and Israelis cross and combine. The close reading of the “Jaffa” brand’s representation is a reflection on western orientalist phantasms surrounding the ‘holy land’ and the ‘State of Israel’ and a way to reveal the untold story of what was once a commune industry and symbol to Arabs and Jews in Palestine. Jaffa’s orange is one of the symbols that helped build the Zionist discourse about Palestine: a “desert we have made bloom”. Based on photographic and cinematographic documents, some going back as far as to the 19th century, Eyal Sivan’s film shows the orange groves at a time when Arab Jaffa was one of Palestine’s most populated and thriving cities. From the picking of the fruit to its packaging before exportation, the orange was a source of revenue for thousands of peasants and workmen, not only from Palestine, but from Egypt, Syria and Lebanon too. Jews and Arabs worked together in the orange groves. These images were progressively replaced by socialist realist images, Israeli style, depicting labor and songs, emancipated women in shorts, etc.: it was the spreading of the “Jewish Labor”, the socialist call to action, excluding the Arabs. In 1948, Jaffa was ruined under the bombs and most of its population was gone. Jaffa’s orange then became the symbol of an Arab-free Israel. An international advertising campaign imposed the name “Jaffa”, like a trademark, concealing the city of Jaffa, its more than a hundred-year-old orange groves, and the history of the Jewish Arab cooperation over this legendary fruit.

While the orange become the symbol of the Zionist enterprise and the state of Israel, for Palestinians it symbolises the lost of their homeland and its destruction. Through a careful reading of the visual representation of the brand, the film reflects on western phantasms related to the ‘Orient’ the ‘holy land’ and the State of Israel and unveils the untold story of what was ones a commune symbol and industry to Arabs and Jews in Palestine. The oranges of Jaffa, the fruits, the orchards, the brand name and the city - that gave to the fruit its name, are the backdrop of the commune Jewish-Arab life in Palestine before the establishment of Israel, the colonial covetousness, the account of obliteration, nationalization, then repudiation in order to propose a joint historical narrative.

For more than a year now, Khleifi and Sivan have dedicated themselves to producing what they consider a cinematic act of faith: a film co-directed by a Palestinian and by an Israeli. In the summer of 2002, for two long months, they travelled together from the south to the north of their country of birth, traced their trajectory on a map and called it Route 181. This virtual line follows the borders outlined in Resolution 181, which was adopted by the United Nations on November 29th 1947 to partition Palestine into two states. As they travel along this route, they meet women and men, Israeli and Palestinian, young and old, civilians and soldiers, filming them in their everyday lives. Each of these characters has their own way of evoking the frontiers that separate them from their neighbours: concrete, barbed-wire, cynicism, humour, indifference, suspicion, aggression…Frontiers have been built on the hills and in the plains, on mountains and in valleys but above all inside the minds and souls of these two peoples and in the collective unconscious of both societies.

  • The Shoah on Screen – Representing Crimes Against Humanity Big Screen, Film-Makers Generally Have to Address the Key Question of Realism
    Mémoi In attempting to portray the Holocaust and crimes against humanity on the The Shoah on screen – representing crimes against humanity big screen, film-makers generally have to address the key question of realism. This is both an ethical and an artistic issue. The full range of approaches has emember been adopted, covering documentaries and fiction, historical reconstructions such as Steven Spielberg’s Schindler’s List, depicting reality in all its details, and more symbolic films such as Roberto Benigni’s Life is beautiful. Some films have been very controversial, and it is important to understand why. Is cinema the best way of informing the younger generations about what moire took place, or should this perhaps be left, for example, to CD-Roms, videos Memoi or archive collections? What is the difference between these and the cinema as an art form? Is it possible to inform and appeal to the emotions without being explicit? Is emotion itself, though often very intense, not ambivalent? These are the questions addressed by this book which sets out to show that the cinema, a major art form today, cannot merely depict the horrors of concentration camps but must also nurture greater sensitivity among increas- Mémoire ingly younger audiences, inured by the many images of violence conveyed in the media. ireRemem moireRem The Shoah on screen – www.coe.int Representing crimes The Council of Europe has 47 member states, covering virtually the entire continent of Europe.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 10, 2020 Jews Across
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 10, 2020 Jews Across the Globe Applaud Statement by Palestinian and Arab Academics, Journalists, and Intellectuals We, Jewish groups and individuals from across the globe, applaud the recent powerful statement and set of principles signed by 122 Palestinian and Arab academics, journalists, and intellectuals regarding the definition of antisemitism by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) and the way this definition has been applied, interpreted and deployed. As the letter states so compellingly: " The fight against antisemitism should not be turned into a stratagem to delegitimize the fight against the oppression of the Palestinians, the denial of their rights and the continued occupation of their land." It avers: "Antisemitism must be debunked and combated. Regardless of pretense, no expression of hatred for Jews as Jews should be tolerated anywhere in the world. We also believe that the lessons of the Holocaust as well as those of other genocides of modern times must be part of the education of new generations against all forms of racial prejudice and hatred." And it also makes clear: "The fight against antisemitism must be deployed within the frame of international law and human rights. It should be part and parcel of the fight against all forms of racism and xenophobia, including Islamophobia, and anti-Arab and anti-Palestinian racism. The aim of this struggle is to guarantee freedom and emancipation for all oppressed groups. It is deeply distorted when geared towards the defence of an oppressive and predatory state." See the full statement from Palestinian and Arab academics, journalists, and intellectuals ​here​.

  • A History of Anti-Partitionist Perspectives in Palestine 1915-1988
    A history of Anti-partitionist Perspectives in Palestine 1915-1988 Submitted by Kaoutar Guediri to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Arab and Islamic Studies, February 2013. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I understand that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. .................................... 1 2 Abstract The diplomatic and political deadlock in what has come to be known as the Palestine/Israel conflict, has led to the re-emergence of an anti-partition discourse that draws its arguments from the reality on the ground and/or from anti-Zionism. Why such a re-emergence? Actually, anti-partitionism as an antagonism depends on its corollary, partitionism, and as such, they have existed for the same period of time. Furthermore, the debate between anti- partitionists and pro-partitionists – nowadays often referred to as a debate between the one-state and the two-state solution – is not peculiar to the period around 2000. It echoes the situation in the late 1910s when the British were settling in Palestine and authorising the Zionist settler colonial movement to build a Jewish homeland thus introducing the seeds of partition and arousing expressions of anti-partitionism. This dissertation aims to articulate a political history of the anti-partitionist perspectives against the backdrop of an increasing acceptance of Palestine's partition as a solution.

    www.calihomes.com JAFFA THE ORANGE’S CLOCKWORK JAFFA PRESSESTIMMEN Sivan ist ein Meister des Kompilationsfilms (film-dienst) Spannendes Kino, das Bekanntes in anderem Licht zeigt. (Scala-Kinotipp) ein hochgradig politischer und zeitgeschichtlich relevanter Dokumentarfilm, der den Palästinakonflikt von einer neuen Warte aus thematisiert (filmstarts.de) The film is a moving and critical, yet balanced, multi-layered political essay that unpeels the complicated and untold story of the invention of the world´s most famous fruit that originated in Palestine in the mid-19th century and was named after the sea port of Jaffa, where it was first produced for export. (Aviva-Berlin.de) INHALT Wer kennt sie nicht, die Jaffa-Orange? Seit Jahrzehnten ist sie lecker, gesund und weltberühmt. Selbst Stars wie Ingrid Bergman und Louis Armstrong posierten für sie – „Jaffa“ war die Coca-Cola der Fruchtsäfte. Die Geschichte der Hafenstadt Jaffa, deren Rumpf heute ein Stadtteil von Tel Aviv ist, ist Jahrtausende alt. Bis Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts war sie eine der lebendigsten und kosmopolitischsten Städte des Nahen Ostens - kulturell, ökonomisch und politisch. In ihrem Umland wurden über Jahrhunderte Orangen kultiviert, der Export der palästinensischen „Jaffa-Oranges“ durch den Hafen gewährleistet. Anhand von einzigartig komponiertem Archivmaterial spürt Eyal Sivan in 'Jaffa, The Orange’s Clockwork' der Orangen- Marke nach. Er zeigt israelischen und palästinensischen Intellektuellen und Mitarbeitern der Zitrusindustrie alte Fotos, frühe Filmaufnahmen, Werbefilme und –plakate, politische Poster sowie Malerei rund um die Frucht. Sie erinnern, reflektieren und analysieren am Beispiel der Jaffa- Orangen ihre eigene Geschichte und die ihres Landes. Die unterschiedlichen, sich ergänzenden Narrative brechen Mythen und schreiben eine Geschichte jenseits nationalistischer Historiographie.
