This event will include the world premiere screening of Trip Ziggurat, a short documentary by Iraqi-American filmmaker Usama Alshaibi, followed by a Q&A with the filmmaker, producer, and cast members, poetry readings by local Arab writers, a presentation from the Boulder-Nablus Sister City Project, and community conversation over Palestinian food and refreshments. The event aims to foster cross-cultural understanding, celebrate Arab and immigrant voices during Immigrant Heritage Month, and create a welcoming space for dialogue between Arab and non-Arab community members.
This event is free and open to the public and is supported by the city's Human Relations Fund.
