Aida Returns
Palestine Cinema Days
Free Screening
Canada/Lebanon/USA, 2024, Carol Mansour
After Aida’s passing, Mansour engineers a way to return her ashes to Palestine, aided by an unlikely set of friends and strangers coming together to facilitate what should have been a simple journey. The documentary is a tribute to the lost past of the director’s family, an attempt to restore part of both an individual and a collective memory, and a poetic nod and affirmation to all those exiled Palestinians forbidden from returning to their hometowns, even after death. Cleveland premiere. Subtitles. 77 min. Admission free. https://aflamuna.org/calls/palestine-cinema-days-around-the-world-24/ (Source: ohio.org)
