Join us to watch Sitwat Azhar Hashmi's documentary, “‘iinaa bialmanzil - انا بالمنزل” (I AM HOME), to explore complex questions about home, identity, belonging and citizenship through the eyes of transnational youth residing in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region.
The documentary delves into the GCC region’s Kafala System as it exists today by exploring the ‘temporary’ status of transnational youth born or residing in the region from infancy. Presently, such transnational youth in the GCC region risk family separation and deportation due to their legal status of ‘temporary residents’, a status that averages a duration of 20 years without a comprehensible path to naturalization or permanent residency.
The screening will be followed by a discussion between Sitwat Hashmi and guest speakers that participated in the movie.
Guest speakers
