About

Soda Film + Art present a new feature documentary from visual artists Joana Hadjithomas & Khalil Joreige (directors of Je Veux Voir, starring Cathering Deneuve). In 1961, a Lebanese university professor and his students launched their own improbable entry to the international space race. From disastrous rocket fuel experiments to test launches that united pan-Arabist optimism, this internationally acclaimed documentary excavates a forgotten moment in history and recalls the utopian possibilities that ultimately lost out to civil and regional conflict. Dir. Khaili Joreige & Joana Hadjithomas Featuring. Manoug Manougian, Hampar Karageozian, Harry Koundakjian. 2012 | Lebanon, France, Qatar 93mins Buy online or reserve a place and pay on the door rsvp@mosaicrooms.org
