Reem Jubran, Visiting Distinguished Practitioner | Screening + Q&A

Reem Jubran
Visiting Distinguished Practitioner
Film Screening + Q&A
Reem Jubran’s Distinguished Visiting Practitioner residency opens with a screening of LA Rebellion: A Cinematic Movement, a PBS documentary featuring Jubran, historicizing diverse and oppressed voices as creative storytellers of their communities’ experiences. The film highlights the explosive emergence of UCLA’s 1960’s Black filmmaking students, rooting their productions in social justice and community service, creating a ripple effect for Indigenous, Chicano, and Asian filmmakers at UCLA throughout the 1970s and 80s.
Jubran, a Palestinian feminist filmmaker, and UCLA graduate, follows her predecessors with experience spanning from collaborations with legendary Palestinian filmmakers Annemarie Jacir and Elia Sulieman, leading to her award-winning short film Don’t Be Long, Little Bird. The screening will be followed by a Q&A discussion.
Please also mark your calendars for closing residency event on October 30, 2026.
