Zindeeq poster

Released in 2009, Zindeeq is a notable film directed by Michel Khleifi, running about 85 minutes.

What it’s about. Acclaimed director Michel Khleifi's story of a Palestinian film-maker 'M' living in Europe, who returns home to Ramallah to film witness accounts of the 1948 Nakba - not only explores the events of that tumultuous era, but places them in context with the uncertainty and tension of present-day Palestine. Over the course of a single day and night, M's solipsistic existence is shaken when his nephew kills a man in Nazareth, placing the entire family at risk of reprisals. This masterful feature - a quietly witty, complex and occasionally surreal depiction of an exile's relationship with Palestine - marks a new direction in Khleifi's work.

Who’s in it. Zindeeq stars Mira Awad, Mohammad Bakri as M. and Mohammad Bakri as M..
