About the filmmaker

Khaled Jarrar is an artist (lives and works in Palestine) whose work explores the representations of power sabotaging codes and symbols, as well as the notions of statehood, legitimacy, historical narrative, political authority and most importantly, freedom. Jarrar’s work feed important questions about art as a "place" that is capable of supporting activities that could not happen anywhere else thus opening the question of how art affects politics. Art opens therefore space able to make us believe in the freedom to think outside the box: spaces of independent thinking able to explore the imagination of what could be. For instance, with his work State of Palestine, Jarrar’s method is one of determining a possible alternate reality of resisting occupation.
