Film title: Bab’Aziz
A Film by: Nacer Khemir
Genre: Drama
Year of production: 2005
Country: Tunisia
Film duration: 99 min
Language: Arabic and Farsi | SUB: English. Ticket: 15 NIS
Synopsis:
A visual poem of incomparable beauty, this masterpiece from director Nacer Khemir (Wanderers of the Desert) begins with the story of a blind dervish named Bab’Aziz and his spirited granddaughter, Ishtar. Together they wander the desert in search of a great reunion of dervishes that takes place just once every thirty years. With faith as their only guide, the two journey for days through the expansive, barren landscape. To keep Ishtar entertained, Bab’Aziz relays the ancient tale of a prince who relinquished his realm in order to remain next to a small pool in the desert, staring into its depths while contemplating his soul. As the tale of the prince unfolds, the two encounter other travelers with stories of their own including Osman, who longs for the beautiful woman he met at the bottom of a well, and Zaid, who searches for the ravishing young woman who fled from him after being seduced by his songs

Talk: Hydraulic Imaginaries
Artist: Benji Boyadgian
Date: Wednesday 5.3.2025 at 19:30
Language: English
As part of the series of talks on early 20th century ornamental tiles, artist Benji Boyadgian will revisit his exhibition, the Discord, which took place at Al-Ma’mal Foundation for Contemporary Arts in 2017. In the talk he will expand on the ideas that informed this work and discuss his research process in order to give a glimpse of the underlying politics beneath it. The presentation will also delve into the history of these tiles, how their images came about, and their mode of production. Through an exploration of how these tiles arrived on the shores of Palestine to later become a symbol of Palestinian identity, the presentation will reflect on the notion of heritage and its relationship with national identity, while taking into consideration the impact of technologies on our imaginary

Save the ArQ welcomes you to the traditional Diarnntarach bonfire.
2025-02-26 20:00 - 22:00
The Diarnntarach bonfire takes place every year on the 26th of February, right after the annual vigil at Sts. James Cathedral, and a day before the feast of Diarnntarach according to the Gregorian Calendar, which the Armenian Church in Jerusalem follows.

Diarnntarach takes place 40 days after Theophany – Armenian Christmas. That was the day when Mary and Joseph took baby Jesus to the temple and presented Him to God.

The tradition of leaping over the fire is a residual Armenian pagan ritual which remained even after Armenia’s adoption of Christianity.

The event has traditionally taken place at the Goverou Bardez, which is poetic, given the situation we find ourselves in today.

Join us on the 26th of February and be a part of Jerusalemite Armenian culture!
