Farha: Al-Nakba Depicted in Harrowing Detail
During turbulent times, one might turn to art to better understand the world. For many Palestinians, their stories have been suppressed until Farha, the first film to depict the early stages of Israel's formation. Give it a watch and read this review.
Have you ever heard of the Al-Nakba, the initial catastrophe displacing over seven hundred thousand native Palestinians from their homes to create the modern nation-state of Israel? There is a distinct possibility you have not, considering that images of Israeli soldiers performing war crimes remain a sensitive subject to Israel and their allies. Yet more people are becoming aware of the event,…

Netflix’s ‘Farha’ is an Honest Depiction of the Nakba and Palestinian History
For a film whose title literally translates to ‘joy,’ Jordanian film Farha brings grief and war into Netflix’s screens, and it is anything but joyful.
Jordaian director Darin J. Sallam’s drama Farha, which premiered on 1 December, paints only an individual tragedy within a world of violence in Palestine. The film tells the story of a small-scale calamity, unfolding through it a bigger picture of injustice, atrocity, and grief.
The film follows Farha (played by Palestinian Karam Taher) a 14-year old Palestinian girl who dreams of breaking free from social and gender expectations her small village in Plaestine. Farha, who chafes at the expectations of being married off, has aspirations of becoming a school teacher. In sun-drenched Palestine, there are long talks of dreams between Farha and her best friend Fareeda, until their world comes crumbling down.
In impeccable storytelling and heart-wrenching imagery, Farha depicts the Palestinian Nakba (catastrophe) that took place in 1948 to create the state of Israel. It unfolds the dire effects the Nakba had on Palestinians, expelling them forcefully from their homes.
In an interview, Sallam explained that the film is based on a true story of a friend of her mother’s, who experienced the Nakba as a younger girl, and now lives as a refugee in Syria.
I’m not afraid to tell the truth. We need to do this because films live and we die,” Sallam said in an interview. “This is why I decided to make this film. Not because I’m political, but because I’m loyal to the story that I heard.”
For many, this film is a healing process of aching memories of that time, but for others, it is a reminder of an ongoing Nakba.
The story: A slice of one life that speaks volumes
