Let’s Talk About the Middle East

The Miniplex at Richards’ Goat Tavern

HSU history professor Leena Dallasheh will be hosting a screening of Avanti Popolo (1986). Set in the Sinai Peninsula immediate aftermath of the Six-Day War, the film follows the surreal journey of two Egyptian soldiers, lost in the Sinai desert at the end of the war, trying to make their way home, and as they encounter an Israeli patrol. Israeli General/politician Ariel Sharon opposed this film’s nomination for the Academy Awards, claiming in was “a self-destructive portrait of inept Jews.” A discussion will be held following the film.
