At the point of no return, the world won’t be the same. Iran retaliates firmly and viciously.; The True Promise 4 military operation strikes Bahrain oil depots and desalination unit while still holding grip on the economically vital Hormuz strait. in 14 days every single household in the world will feel the repercussions.

The vision of this project imagines a spaces where cinematic archives hold social gatherings, not a screening but an echo of it. Not a party but a an echo of it. In Al Hawiyah (where things fall) A film like Malaf fil Adab becomes a visual and sonic bonfire for our exiled communities to come together, remember, learn, explore and dance, all where other things fall and never land. Together with drag workshop and drag shows the trio organises the necessities. The first hour from 20:00-21:00 will open the night with a welcoming set produced using the audio of the film mixed with featured sets from our favorite local dj’s: @zobayda__ @ashtattz @xanax_attax @queenofvirginity See you tomorrow ❤️‍🔥 21-02-2016 Vrankrijk, Amsterdam. ___A File in Vice (Egyptian: Malaf Fi Al-Adab) is a 1986 Egyptian drama-thriller directed by Atef El-Tayeb and starring Madiha Kamel and Farid Shawqi.

French Crimes In Algeria - الجزائر تجرم الإستعمار الفرنسي [full set in bio ] Algeria passes law declaring French colonisation a crime. This 14min set celebrates the sounds traveling from Algeria’s parliament on 24 Dec 2025 to Ahmed Wahby’s patriotic “L’Algeria Si E’Ribellata. Capturing a glimpse into the significant musical reflection of Algeria’s fight for independence, from Kassam anthem to Cheikha Rimitti’s iconic “Hak Hak” (often “H’ak H’ak” or related to “Hakada”) the raw, powerful Rai anthem about feeling betrayed and alienated, expressing deep frustration (“Hada k’ad” or “That’s it!”), disillusionment with Paris/the West.

For the last OP=OP=Open session which came through our Open Space invitation, we are excited to welcome the anonymous bird @alshaheenbabyfalcon to share their latest artistic disruption. ‘Libraries Are Not Supposed To Be Quiet’ responds to current political uncertainties where art is considered illegal, cultural workers are censored, and voices are muted. Started at @p1projects and travelled to @le_guess_who 2025, the project continues as an ongoing curatorial research on the alternative ways of production under surveillance and budget cuts. During this gathering, Al-Shaheen will present snippets from different interventions that took place in the research, followed by an open conversation on how to use public libraries as spaces for knowledge production, exchange, and indirect action work. 🗓 Saturday 6 December 2025 🕖 20:00 – 22:00 📍 Vijverhofstraat 29, Rotterdam The event is for free, but Al-Shaheen will be collecting donations to support the educational initiative @phoenix_of_knowledge in Gaza RSVP by sending an email to [email protected] Slide 1: Design by @chrisssleiman Slide 2&3: from 'Libraries Are Not Supposed To Be Quiet' by Al-Shaheen Baby Falcon
