ICA's video: Crossings: Stories of Migration Masterclass with Avi Mograbi film director

One of Israel’s most celebrated non-fiction filmmakers, Avi Mograbi is known for his commitment to social, cultural and political justice in the Middle East. His urgent, subversive and uncompromising films such as Between Fences, Z32, Avenge But One of My Two Eyes and August: A Moment Before the Eruption explore the paradoxes of contemporary Israeli society and investigate socio-political inequalities more broadly. https://www.ica.art/whats-on/crossings-masterclass-avi-mograbi In this masterclass, Mograbi discussed the relation between the artistic creation and the political engagement of his work. He reflected on the role of the filmmaker as an activist and documentary filmmaking as a site for political resistance and fight for social justice. https://www.ica.art/whats-on/season/crossings-stories-migration https://www.crossings2017.co.uk/ Crossings: Stories of Migration is an ICA-led UK-wide film and events programme supported by the BFI using National Lottery funding, in partnership with the Goethe-Institut and the School of Film & Television, Falmouth University
