How is contemporary Palestine constructed through personal narratives, outside perspectives, and collective memory? Bringing together journalism, literature, photography, and cinema, this panel features a conversation between Lena Mauger, Editor-in-Chief of Kometa magazine, and Jadd Hilal, a Franco-Palestinian-Lebanese author.
Together, they will explore the many methods of narrating a territory, its histories, and its imaginaries, examining how stories are constructed and transmitted beyond conventional representations. Through their respective perspectives and practices, the discussion will reflect on the role of storytelling in shaping memory, understanding, and cultural imagination.
