Basma al-Sharif, 'Ouroboros' (2017)

Online Screening
1 — 15 December 2023

Together as colleagues and in solidarity with Palestine, LUX Scotland, Glasgow Short Film Festival, Take One Action and CCA Glasgow present a screening of Basma al-Sharif’s ​‘Ouroboros’ (2017). As we witness the devastating violence in Gaza, described by former UN Human Rights official Craig Mokhiber as a ​‘text-book case of genocide’, we stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people, their right to freedom, land, life, dignity and empathy.

Past Events

a Northern English valley with green rolling hills and lush trees is dotted with ruined stoned buildings and intersected by a narrow road lined by dry stone walls. 3 cars drive along the road, one black, one red, and one blue. The foliage has hints of burnt brown, red and yellow. Looming large on the horizon are white surveillance radomes, the sky is dark grey behind these huge geodesic domes.

A film still from ‘Lagareh – The Last Born’. We see a Black womxn wearing a white sweater, a multi-coloured kilt and white and black boots. She is standing in a grassy field: her shoulders are raised and holding two machetes. In the background, there is an eighteenth-century folly and a simple fence with timber posts and metal netting. The sky is blue and there are no clouds.

an aerial view still shows a white woman floating on her back in dark blue, almost black water. She wears a black swimming costume that covers her body and arms, the skin of her face, hands and legs stand out against the dark water. Her left foot extends upwards as she kicks, and her right leg, which is amputated below the knee, moves downwards. As she floats in the loch, ripples extend from her body outwards through the water. Light catches the ripples and through the water’s surface we can see brown plants.
