TO PRESERVE A REVOLUTION

ONLINE FILM SCREENING

6.-13.01.2022, 21:00 bis 22:12 (in Ihrer jeweiligen Zeitzone) Jeden Abend auf dem GPC Online Screen http://streaming.goldenpixelcoop.com Mit Arbeiten von Nada Hassan, Sarah Ibrahim, Maha Maamoun, Salma Shamel, Mohammad Shawky Hassan Kuratiert von Ahmed Refaat (Contemporary Image Collective)

Eine Revolution zu wagen und sie bestehen zu lassen, ist harte Arbeit. Es ist eine Untersuchung der kollektiven Erinnerung, ein kontinuierliches Erproben des Unerreichbaren und eine Erkundung medialer Grenzen. Eine Grenze, so sagt man, kann man nicht direkt erleben, man erfährt sie immer erst beim Zurückblicken. In gewisser Weise ist dies ein Programm über den Rückblick auf eine Revolution.

To Preserve A Revolution präsentiert Arbeiten von fünf ägyptischen FilmemacherInnen und KünstlerInnen, die ein historisches Ereignis analysieren und mit der Unmöglichkeit seiner Darstellung experimentieren. Sie thematisieren die Erfahrung eines solchen Ereignisses als aktiv Teilnehmende, als distanzierte Zeug*innen und als Erinnernde. Die in diesem Programm präsentierten Arbeiten vermitteln Eindrücke anhand von Tagebüchern, Fotografien, Zeitzeugenberichten, TV-Archivmaterial, Handyaufnahmen und Texten. Sie untersuchen, wie Erinnerungen bewahrt werden und wie sie durch Bewegtbilder wieder bzw. anders erinnert werden können. Dabei geht es ihnen nicht um Erklärungen oder Wertungen, sondern vielmehr um eine offene Auseinandersetzung mit einem andauernden historischen Prozess, die sich dem Vergessen entgegen stellt.

Text von Ahmed Refaat (Contemporary Image Collective)

Contemporary Image Collective (CiC) ist eine in Kairo verankerte Kulturinstitution mit einem besonderen Interesse an der Überschneidung von visueller Kultur, künstlerischer Praxis und kritischem Diskurs. Die Aktivitäten des CiC umfassen Ausstellungen, Filmvorführungen, Vorträge, Vermittlung, Forschung, Publikationen, eine öffentliche Bibliothek und verschiedene Einrichtungen zur Bildproduktion.

PROGRAMM (72 min.)

21:00 - 21:11 Those That Tremble as if They Were Mad von Salma Shamel

21:12 - 21:24 Room at Region (X) von Nada Hassan

21:25 - 21:38 Masters of Sleep von Sarah Ibrahim

21:39 - 21:48 Night Visitor: The Night of Counting the Years von Maha Maamoun

21:49 - 22:12 And On a Different Note von Mohammad Shawky Hassan

Der GPC Online Screen ist eine Streaming-Plattform, die kuratierte Filmprogramme präsentiert. Bei der Realisierung dieses Projektes kooperierte The Golden Pixel Cooperative mit Lagentedelcomún, einem kolumbianischen Künstler*innen-Kollektiv, das in den Bereichen Web-Entwicklung und Interaktionsdesign arbeitet und sich vor allem kulturellen, ökologischen und sozialen Projekten widmet.

Abu Dhabi, UAE: NYU Abu Dhabi has announced the 2017-2018 class of the Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Scholars Program, which enhances existing skills of outstanding students in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and provides them with special academic and leadership opportunities. The Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Scholars Program, established by NYU Abi Dhabi in conjunction with the Abu Dhabi Education Council (ADEC), draws on students in their third and fourth years of study in the UAE’s national institutions of higher learning—United Arab Emirates University (UAEU), Zayed University (ZU), and the Higher Colleges of Technology (HCT). Sixty students were nominated by the three institutions to be considered for the Scholars program. Of these, 38 were selected as finalists and were interviewed, and 24 were selected as Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Scholars by a distinguished panel of judges from NYU Abu Dhabi, NYU New York, and leaders from the local community. The 2017-2018 Scholars will take either one of two special classes, first is on religion and government, taught by former NYU President John Sexton, and the other on U.S. foreign policy, taught by noted journalist James Traub. In addition, all Scholars will take courses on Leadership Development, Public Speaking, Public Presentations, Critical Thinking and Persuasive Writing. During the year, the program participants will travel to the U.S. to visit government sites in Washington, D.C., and hold classes at the Washington Square campus in New York while also touring cultural attractions in the two cities. Her Highness Sheikha Mariam bint Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, co-chair of the Scholars Program Steering Committee, pointed that the Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Scholars Program recognizes promising students and provides them with unparalleled educational and leadership development opportunities. She added that the students who won the chance to become Scholars for this year should be very proud of their achievements. Diane C. Yu, Executive Director of the Scholars Program and Counselor to NYUAD Leadership said: “We are delighted that these exceptional men and women will be part of this new class of Scholars. They represent the very best qualities of academic achievement, intellectual curiosity, leadership potential, creativity, skills, and accomplishments among the top university students in the UAE. They are a diverse and dynamic group, and we hope they will benefit greatly from what they will learn and experience through the program.” The 2017-2018 Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Scholars are: 1.

Identifying with the “Other”: Visual Analysis of Fellahin Stereotypes in El Beh El Bawab Film by Salma Nader Galal.

Introduction: Fellahin in Egyptian Cinema

The fellahin have been mostly stereotyped in Egyptian cinema while comprising the majority of Egypt’s population (CAPMAS, 2014). Before the 1952 revolution, fellahin were almost never represented, except on the sideline of aristocratic life. During the 50s and 60s, the newly shaped government policies influenced films to portray fellahin as victims of the feudal system imposed by the former ruling class. As a result, there was a significant hike in the percentage of films casting them as main characters. Peasants’ cinematic depiction then dropped down in the past 30 years, while going back to embodying superficial and stereotypical roles.

This retrospective is an occasion to analyze the rural Egyptian life beyond what is on TV and in film. Most of the inhabitants of Cairo and large cities hold certain prejudices towards fellahin, specifically how they look like and how they expect them to act. Are these preconceptions due to media representations or does the media reinforce already existing racial bias that urban Egyptians have toward what they consider, a lesser class?

This paper will examine the film, “The Prestigious Gatekeeper” or “El Beh El Bawab”, an Egyptian Comedy-Drama that came out in cinemas in 1987, which coincided with significant changes in the social class within Egypt.

Literature Review: Beyond Edward Said’s Orientalism

“Orientalism” is a visual and cultural theory that is based on the writings of Edward Said. Said proposed that his theory sprang from postcolonialism and defined it extensively in his well-known publication “Orientalism” (1978). Said argued that Orientalism -as a product of colonialism- is not only a political project, it also involves ideological construction of different modes of representation (Mambrol, 2016). Thus, he defined Orientalism as the construction of the East through the lens of the West, which consistently portrayed the East to be primitive, undeveloped, exotic and a backwards culture (Said, 1987).

In his postcolonial literary criticism, Said adopted a contrapuntal reading of texts where he identified the ideological frameworks of literary texts to find imperialized discourses. This reading will conceptually differ when developed in a different historical narrative and context. It’s difficult to precisely trace back the origin of the distinction between the West and the East. However, according to Said Orientalism as a system of ideas to remain perpetual in academics from late 1840s until present, indicates that this is a systemic issue and not a collection of lies (Said, 1987). It would also be too limiting to argue that Said’s findings are strictly the result of a Western gaze only. Orientalist subjects have received, contributed, challenged, and modified Orientalism.

Hassan Ibrahim, the director of the movie under study presented a social critique of the Egyptian society during the late 1980s, a historical period known for economic and cultural openness in Egypt. Most movies of the time were reflecting the Egyptian society as being highly westernized, especially the elites who were heavily exposed to Western cultures. Ibrahim in “El Beh El Bawab”, introduced the protagonist in the role of an Egyptian fellah serving as the gatekeeper of a building having most of its residents of the Egyptian elite. In this film the director reflected the Orientalist lens through which the wider society perceives fellahin to be e.g. gatekeepers, dark-skinned, belittled, illiterate, have an exaggerated rural accent, wear Jalabiyas and are always made fun of- because they are different. In his attempt to show the cruelty of the higher class towards lower classes, Ibrahim stereotyped the fellah character in all the previously mentioned features and instead of sympathizing with the poor peasant, the fellah became a subject of humor to the viewers. Most of Hassan Ibrahim’s movies were concerned with how lower classes in Egypt rebel against the obstacles they face, but in that he notably stereotyped his main characters. One example is “The Lady’s Driver” or “ Sawaa’ El Hanem” (1994) in which Ibrahim presented a love story between an upper-class girl having Western features and her driver who was played by Ahmed Zaki.

Theoretical Framework: Orientalism and Subcultural Diversity

Said’s Orientalism was debated and criticized for its treatment of the Orient as a homogenous structure. It ignored gender differences and class dimension and did not take into account how the colonial took in, endured and/or endorsed the Orientalist discourses projected on them.

Homi K. Bhabha suggested that colonial discourses cannot work as smoothly as Orientalism might seem to suggest. Instead, Bhabha contends that, “Orientalism is diluted and hybridized, and therefore, the identities of the colonizer as well as the colonized are unstable, shifting and fragmentary” (Moosavinia, Niazi, Ghaforian, 2011). Globalism is one of the processes of cultural hybridization, which results in diluting and removing pure or authentic culture. That’s why Bhabha's reading of the colonial discourse presented a shift to understanding the subjectification of Orientalism that was there through its stereotypical discourse.

In conclusion, Orientalism lies at the core of understanding the world in the framework of binary oppositions, in which the Occident/West is the (unmarked) primary category, whereas the Orient/East is the (marked) Other. Understanding the world in terms of what is normal and what is different, is encoded with values and concepts of superiority. In dealing with issues of ethnic and cultural diversity, ideologized media messages present subcultures according to the institutional criteria for what gets to count as knowledge in a given society. Said’s Orientalism functions to help the West define itself by constructing an Other. Otherness in cultural studies refers to a culture image that establish its own value in order to identity itself, while to shape a confrontation with itself and less than its own (Éigeartaigh, 2011). Orientalism is intertwined with complex social and cultural psychologies. Similarly in Egypt, we understand our identity by comparing ourselves to Other rural cultures like fellahin, Nubians, Bedouins...etc. We perceive those Others to be interesting, eternal and static and ourselves to be the dynamic, innovative inhabitants of the city.

Contextual Analysis: The Other Fellah

Orientalism as a way of seeing, exaggerates differences between people. The movie director depended on the same strategy starting with casting Ahmed Zaki who is naturally Asmarani or dark-skinned in the role of Abdel Sameaa the fellah, to emphasize on the Oriental image that Egyptian guards are either villagers, nubians and/ or Sudanese. The naivety of Abdel Sameaa was focused upon from the opening scene where he kept all of his savings of money underneath his hat, which he then lost while getting on the train to Cairo. This was the beginning of a series of misfortunate events that he encountered because he is simply a goofy fellah. It symbolized the fact that city life wouldn’t not be as simple as his life used to be.

The scene in which Abdel Sameaa gets invited to a party by the female protagonist needs to be contextually analyzed. She got him drunk and as a naive fellah he did not realize that he had been drinking. He then started to drunkenly sing, with the camera showing him at a low angle, sitting on the floor, symbolizing the social difference between him and the party guests. He then became the subject of entertainment as the party attendees started cheering him instead of being surprised that the building’s guard was at their aristocratic party. The camera followed him as he swirled around not willingly, instead the guests kept passing him off to one another. Abdel Sameaa here was represented under the camera or the Orientalist gaze of both the party attendees and the viewers. The director used Otherness as a mode of representation in this scene. The camera was moving with him, but they were the ones in power and control of moving him around. The same applies to the viewers who are in power to perceive him as different from them, even if they don’t want for him to be treated in such a demeaning way.

The camera then captured the scene in a bird’s eye view in which Abdel Sameaa appeared to be very small among the rest. In this high angle, the camera represented and emphasized the viewers’ Orientalist gaze of the fellah who is lower than them. Abdel Sameaa started to sing saying “where is my hat, where is my hat, my hat got lost, and I got trapped in Egypt the mother of the world”, and he then fell down and again was shown at a low angle. Abdel Sameaa then sang “I swore to be a Pasha in Egypt” and stood up and kept singing “I am a Pasha I am a Pasha” and the guests sang along jokingly “You are a Pasha, You are a Pasha” and by the end of the party they kicked him off.

Abdel Sameaa’s hat symbolized his naivety and decent villager principles from the beginning of the film. It was used to exemplify Abdel Sameaa’s comfort zone, he used it as a safe for his money to imply its value to him. After he was faced by the harshness of the city life, he had to lose the hat and set himself free from its restrictions and become someone who is respected in the city no matter what it took and that is exactly what happened in the film.

Conclusion: Internalized Orientalism

“The Prestigious Gatekeeper or “ El Beh El Bawab” reflects upon the milestones of the 1980s in Egypt. It subtly referred to a postcolonial predicament in which the formerly colonized have internalized colonial epistemes. Generally, Egypt was colonized by several Western civilizations throughout history. Colonization colonizes perception in addition to countries and it helps alter their cultural priority (Nandy, 1983). In this process the West generalize concepts of Western superiority from a geographical perspective to a psychological level in which colonial subjects internalize and absorb Orientalist colonial understandings. As a result, a double consciousness is constructed; a consciousness of the self and a consciousness of the colonizing Other. Hence, in the decolonization process, a reflection of this internalized Orientalism remains. These remnants were reflected in Egypt through cinema. Similarly in “El Beh El Bawab”, the elites had the tendency to think in Orientalist terms of the fellah whom they considered as the Other.

In sum this have became a standard basis for how urban Egyptians understand themselves. Therefore, Orientalizing fellahin both in movies and in real life, shows how cultural hierarchy helps provide an understanding of the self against the Other as an underground self. Film makers may cultivate stereotypical images about villagers, Sa’idi people, Nubians and Bedouins, but they mostly portray what they understand and what the audience would like to see.

El Beh El Bawab:

Abdel Sameaa flees to Cairo with his wife and children looking for a better lifestyle. He then becomes a gatekeeper of a building and then a broker. He manages to gain a fair amount of money, but one of the building residents tries to set him up to steal it away, will he fall in such a trap?

Director: Hassan Ibrahim

Crew: Ahmed Zaki, Safia El Emary, Fouad El Mohandes and more.

The horrific murder of a journalism student lynched on a university campus in Mardan on April 13 after being accused of ‘blasphemy’, 2017 has revived the urgency of coming together on a joint platform with a minimum common agenda to uphold humanitarian values. Nothing will bring back Mashal Khan, a poet, self-declared humanist and “voice of the voiceless”, but we can at least try to ensure that no other mother loses her Mashal (light) to such barbaric ignorance and orchestrated violence.

Mashal Khan: student, poet, humanist, “voice of the voiceless”

We drafted this statement a few months after the massacre of schoolchildren in Peshawar, signed by over a hundred activists, teachers, lawyers and other professionals as well as students in March 2015: Pakistanis against terrorism: Minimum common agenda against violence in the name of religion – below. Does it need to be amended or updated?

Pakistanis against terrorism: Minimum common agenda against violence in the name of religion

The organisations and individuals represented here are part of a global movement of concerned Pakistanis opposed to violent extremism in the name of religion. We stand by the victims of such violence and aim to provide them with moral and other forms of support to alleviate their suffering. We envision a Pakistan free of hatred and oppression, where all Pakistanis can coexist peacefully and where diversity in religious thought and belief is accepted and respected. We agree on the following minimum agenda:

We stand for human rights and equal citizenship rights for all Pakistanis

We oppose Takfir (declaring anyone a non-Muslim/Kafir) and subjecting anyone to persecution on that basis. We demand that takfir be treated and tried as hate-speech.

We demand that the Government of Pakistan take immediate action against all forms of hate speech which may be defined as words, spoken or written, that incite violence and hatred against any community based on their religious affiliations.

We demand that the Government of Pakistan act against any extra-judicial killings or violence in the name of religion and false accusations of “blasphemy”. We demand the reform of Pakistan’s laws specifically related to the “blasphemy laws”.

We support the rule of law and due process. We demand that the Government enhance the capacity of law enforcing agencies to deal with crime and violence at the local level. Such crimes feed violent extremist groups at other levels.

We demand that educational curriculum at all levels should include teachings that promote compassion, tolerance and respect for human rights. Text books should be revised to expunge any material that incites or preaches hatred and/or violence against any community or section of society.

We demand that the Government of Pakistan act against banned outfits and individuals operating in the name of religion. The Government must also publicize the list of banned outfits engaged in sectarian and religious violence and proceed legally against them.

We demand that Pakistani electronic media cease giving airtime to those who engage in hate speech and who openly incite violence in the name of religion.

We demand that the Government immediately freeze assets of banned outfits and of those who are associated with them and take all measures to permanently cut off their sources of domestic and international financing. The Government should impose sanctions, including travel restrictions, on such outfits and individuals.
