SUMMARY:Constant Adjustment
DESCRIPTION:This year’s film programme as part of the Jameel’s Night School 2026 has five shorts exploring how neighbourhoods and other places endure over time. through ways of property markets\, political erasure\, and the whim of human interest. The screening will be followed by a discussion between the programme’s curator Hind Mezaina and Todd Reisz\, leader of the Night School. \nThe programme: \nWunderland Kalkar dir Ila Bêka & Louise Lemoin (2024\, 5 mins) \nWunderland Kalkar is an amusement park built at a former nuclear power station in Germany. It was completed in 1985\, one year before the Chernobyl disaster; under pressure from local interest groups\, it was finally cancelled in 1991. What to do with an infrastructure now made obsolete but far too massive to be dismantled? \nAl Basateen | The Orchards dir Antoine Chapon (2025\, 25 mins) \nIn 2015\, the Basateen al-Razi district of Damascus was razed to the ground as punishment for the population’s uprising against the regime. Having lost everything\, two former residents recall their neighbourhood. \nOkay Keskidee! Let Me See Inside dir Rhea Storr (2025\, 19 mins) \nA personal account of Black community spaces in the UK\, focusing on a former arts centre that is now a luxury apartment development. Can the digital realm replace a physical community presence and produce an accessible archive for a new generation? \nThe Architect of Luxor dir Jocelyn Saab (1986\, 18 mins) \nThe architect and philosopher Olivier Sednaoui talks about his mud-brick house\, a project which brings together the infinitely small and the infinitely huge. He explains the project from the moulding of the very first mud brick to the life philosophy on which it is based: placing East and West under one single destiny. \nBad for a Moment dir Daniel Soares (2025\, 15 mins) \nA team-building event goes wrong and brings the owner of an architect studio face-to-face with the lower-class neighbourhood that his company is gentrifying. \n
