Frequently asked questions
- What is Ordinary Zionism about?
- Set in the director’s hometown of Hama, this short film presents a bold, unsettling attempt to expose the global Zionist movement by weaving together fragments of personal memory and deep political disillusionment. Through its fractured narrative and incisive, at times confrontational editing, the film challenges dominant Western discourses and constructs a dense atmosphere of conspiracy, erasure, and historical amnesia. A cinematic act of resistance, it draws its urgency not only from archival, but from the director’s own reckoning with the mechanisms of silencing and distortion.
