Followed by a Q&A with writer/director Andrea Assaf. Plus free popcorn!

Eleven Reflections on September is a poetry, music, movement and digital media exploration of Arab American experience, Wars on/of Terror, and "the constant, quiet rain of death amidst beauty" that each autumn brings in a post-9/11 world. Based on a series of poems Andrea Assaf has written since 2001, "Eleven Reflections..." spans the fall of the Twin Towers, the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the global rise of anti-Arab racism and Islamophobia, and the revolutions and uprisings that have swept through the Arab world in the last decade. Released during the pandemic, the film is currently an Official Selection in 6 international film festivals, and won Best Experimental Film at the Silk Road Film Festival Cannes in June 2021.
