DESCRIPTION:Forget Baghdad (Germany\, 2002) Directed by Samir Dschoint Vent
 schr Filmproduktion (111 minutes) Languages: Arabic/English/Hebrew Iraqi-b
 orn\, Zürich-based director Samir “achieves a density of ideas and images 
 that extend the boundaries of the documentary form” (Vancouver Internation
 al Film Festival). This documentary traces four Baghdadi Jews\, all former
  members of the Iraqi communist party\, who were forced to emigrate at Isr
 ael’s founding. After fleeing to Israel\, the men found themselves on the 
 outskirts of a society built and governed by European Jews. Also known as 
 “Sephardis” or “Mizrahim\,” Arab Jews represent a little-known community t
 hat has long found itself caught between warring worldviews. The divided i
 dentities of these men speak to a larger theme of global\, political and c
 ultural disorder. (Languages: Arabic\, English\, and Hebrew). Join us for 
 a reflection on the stereotypes of the “Jew” and the “Arab” in the last hu
 ndred years of cinema!
