I’m bringing this back! Exactly 1 year after the last email. To kick it off, I’m featuring just one film: Dina Amer’s You Resemble Me.

You Resemble Me

At first glance ‘You Resemble Me’ is the story behind France’s first female suicide bomber. But the film, like the true story, goes much deeper and more personal. Director Dina Amer artfully and creatively tells the story of the childhood and young adult experiences that led Hansa to her final days.

Dina also pulled together an all star producing team of VICE Studios & Willa Productions and with executive producers Riz Ahmed, Spike Lee, Spike Jonze, Alma Har’el, Sol Guy and many more. The film has won countless awards at film festivals, and has haunted me in a good way. Attend one of the upcoming showings with special guests.

“An affecting and confident debut. A gripping and painful story of dislocation and belonging.” - The Hollywood Reporter
