CONTEMPORARY MIDDLE EAST ETHNOGRAPHIC FILM SERIES
JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY

-The Anthropology of Middle East and Central Eurasia (AMCE) network of
the European Association of Social Anthropologists,
-The Johns Hopkins University Department of Anthropology, and
-The Johns Hopkins University Program in Islamic Studies

Moderated by

Dr. Pedram Khosronejad (Iranian and Persian Gulf Studies, Oklahoma
State University)
Arpan Roy (Ph.D. Candidate, Anthropology, Johns Hopkins University)
Elmira Alihosseini (Ph.D. Candidate, Anthropology, Johns Hopkins University)

(All screening are free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served.)

This film series on the Middle East showcases five ethnographic
accounts of everyday life across the region, from Cairo and Jerusalem
to Afghanistan and Iran. Although set during troubling times, each
film explores daily life beyond the language of conflict and crisis,
as has largely been the mode in which the Middle East has been
narrated in the world's imagination since the US-led invasion of Iraq
in 2003. While such language may be appropriate in describing wars in
Syria, Iraq, Yemen (among others), coup d'état in Turkey, military
governance in Palestine, etc., is there space for ethnography to help
imagine the Middle East as another place with an universal condition
of social, spiritual, and economic struggle that saturates life beyond
and in concert with conflict and crisis? Is there space for
ethnography to help our imaginations to "travel" further? These five
films follow lived experiences and social worlds just at the door of
turmoil without quite entering. By doing so, the films open the
possibility of what may constitute life beyond reductive narratives of
oppositional ideologies. These films explore the context of "the
cultural" in ways that ethnography has long done—and, in this moment,
invite audiences to conceptualize the region with expanded imagination
(khayal).

The series is a collaboration between the Anthropology of Middle East
and Central Eurasia (AMCE) network of the European Association of
Social Anthropologists, the Johns Hopkins University Department of
Anthropology, and the Johns Hopkins University Program in Islamic
Studies. All films will be screened at Johns Hopkins University.
Please check the schedule of films for detailed information on time,
date, and speakers.
