SUMMARY:Still Dancing – a True Story of a Parkinson’s Hero
DESCRIPTION:A second and final show for this reprise of the Third Half Theatre and Movement Mantra dance-theatre production that aims to raise awareness about Parkinson’s Disease. \nMovement Mantra ‘s founder\, movement coach Vonita Singh\, has been championing the Parkinson’s cause in the UAE for the last 10 years. Her 2019 production tells the real-life story of her father whom she lost to Parkinson’s in 2009; director (and founder of Third Half Theatre) Sanjeev Dixit said that while it is a play about Parkinson’s\, at the heart of it is simply the story of a family – “a family like yours and mine\, with the same hopes and dreams … Still Dancing is essentially a portrayal of the struggles and triumphs of the human spirit”. \nKathak dancer Pali Chandra has choreographed the dance elements\, which will be performed by young dancers from her ensemble Gurukul. \nThe project is supported by German Neuroscience Center in Dubai and NY-based Dance for PD.

SUMMARY:Sol: dir Marie-Helene Cousineau (2014)
DESCRIPTION:The second of two films by Cousineau explores the death of a young Inuk man\, Solomon Tapatiaq Uyarasuk\, who is found dead in a remote Inuit community. The locals suspect murder\, but the police suggest suicide. As the film investigates Solomon’s death\, it sheds light on the underlying social issues of Canada’s North\, a region with one of the highest youth suicide rates in the world. The film explores how the pain of suicide has affected the people in these small communities\, their resilience\, and their efforts to create a better future for their people. \nThis is the final screening in the Sharjah Biennial 15 Film Programme.

SUMMARY:Aziza Brahim Tabal Quartet: Live In Sharjah
DESCRIPTION:Sharjah Art Foundation presents the Queen of Western Sahara Desert Blues Aziza Brahim and her Tabal Quartet live in Sharjah as part of the Sharjah Biennial 15 Music Programme. \nBorn and raised in the Saharawi refugee camps on the frontier between Algeria and Western Sahara\, Brahim reflects both the sorrow and the hope of her people in her music. Her latest album Sahari is a stunner\, showcasing Aziza’s vocal performance and compositions on a series of elegantly produced songs about the migrant experience\, and about the contrast between the desert and the metropolis\, between Africa and Europe\, between traditional and modern … \nThe concert features Aziza Brahim (lead vocals\, tabal)\, Ignasi Cussò (electric guitar)\, Guillem Aguilar (bass) and Andreu Moreno (percussion).
