ANA which means “I” in Arabic is a new films series showcasing the best Arab directors working today. It is about exciting personal visions, unique talent and great stories. It’s about Arabs re-embracing their heritage as Hakawatis, Storytellers. I have scoured film festivals in Doha, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, NY and Toronto over the last couple of years and chosen 12 films – a mix of documentaries and features that have, in their journey to the Burns collected many awards. The films will take you behind the headlines and the rampant cliches to reveal a vibrant, modern Arab world similar yet different, with an underlying social bond familiar to us all. We are very lucky to be collaborating with the Jacob Burns Film Center on this program. The Jacob Burns Film Center is a little suburban jewel. New Yorkers move to Westchester to be close to this artsy movie theater that competes with the likes of the Film Forum, IFC Center, Sunshine and the Walter Reade in its selection of art house films.
