Maskhara (2020)

Origin: Palestine | Documentary | Director: Bashar Murad | 4 minutes

MASKHARA (2020) and ANTENNE (2021), directed by singer and video-artist Bashar Murad, vibrantly satirize gender performativity in the context of occupation through impossible pop-art-ized landscapes including Murad provocatively dancing on a tank.

Part of the The Fashion Programme, curated by Roberto Filippello, features a collection of short films, commercials, and music videos all conceiving the fashioned body as bearer of violence and occupation. Whether at a catwalk or in an airport, the filmmakers understand the socio-political boundaries of fashion and seek to redefine them.
