Fourteen years of what the Hollywood Reporter called “A True Indie Film Festival,” and the LA Weekly touted as a “Mini Sundance”. I couldn’t be more proud of how far this festival has come, and of my partner, Trinity Houston, and the IIFC team who have made it all possible.” Thank you Angelica Reyn for the beautiful stills. @berlinale #Berlinale2023 #berlinale #efm #gratitudeattitude #Internationalactress #staypositive #actorslife #ilovemyjob #multilingualactor #followyourblis #bekind
Check out the book trailer for The Abduction, my translation of @masri.maramal 😘 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jAnYL9SQlw The Abduction refers to an autobiographical event in Maram Al-Masri’s life. When, as a young Arab woman living in France, she decides to separate from her husband with whom she has a child, the father kidnaps the baby and returns to Syria. Al-Masri won’t see her son for thirteen years. This is the story of a woman denied the basic right to raise her child. These are haunting, spellbinding poems of love, despair, and hope, a delicate, profound and powerful book on intimacy, a mother’s rights, war, exile, and freedom. Maram Al-Masri embodies the voice of all parents, who one day, for whatever the reason, have been forcibly separated from their loved ones. She writes about the status of women, seeking to reconcile her role as a mother with her writing work. Thank you Gloria Mindock @cervenabarva for the trailer, @villa.albertine for the Albertine and FACE Foundation Grant, and #whitepinepress 🥰 #arabpoetry #frenchpoetry #creativewriting #womensrights #womensupportingwomen #motherhood #exile #freedom #war #parenting #theabduction #syria #syriawar #literary #translation #poetrycommunity #poets #multilingual #patriarchy #autobiography

Being a Mentor in the Writer to Writer program was such a treat! Mentorships create bridges between writers. The search for fulfillment is a recurrent theme in my life. It’s the title of the thesis I wrote about Henry James. I’m happy as long as I can express myself through art, and I love to work. Whether writing or acting, I find myself in an exalted state of concentration and consciousness, like a meditation or trance. It’s as if time stops or expands, and I’m able to touch other worlds and keep a sense of connection with what is bigger than me. The different languages inform my writing, consciously and unconsciously. All kinds of associations come to mind when I read or write. Translation is also a form of creation. Through translation, we bring cultures together. Becoming familiar with another culture transcends otherness. It was such an enriching and transformative experience to mentor Laura Braverman.
