  • The San Diego Arab Film Festival and the San Diego Asian Film Festival co-present British-Palestinian filmmaker Farah Nabulsi’s award-winning feature film "The Teacher" on September 28 at the Museum of Photographic Arts @ The San Diego Museum of Art.

After the demolition of a Palestinian home by Israeli authorities and the murder of a youth by an Israeli settler, a teacher, played by renowned Palestinian actor Saleh Bakri, tries to manage his own support for the resistance with his efforts to mentor the younger brother of the deceased boy (Muhammad Abed Elrahman) and his relationship with a British human rights worker (Imogen Poots). "The Teacher" had its world premier at the Toronto International Film Festival and its US premier at the San Francisco International Film Festival. It won Audience Choice Award at the San Francisco International, Washington. D.C. International, Brooklyn, Cyprus Film Days International, Arab Film Days, Houston Palestine and Rotterdam Arab Film Festivals. Saleh Bakri won Best Actor Awards at the Red Sea, Belgrade International, Annaba Mediterranean and Malmo Arab Film Festivals. Cafeteria style Arabic dinner will be available including Musakhan (a traditional Palestinian dish of baked chicken with onions, olive oil and sumac served over bread) and Mujadara (a traditional vegetarian dish of lentils and rice garnished with sauteed onions, served with Arabic salad).
