What do music and poetry have to do with the divine?
How have different cultures and religions used the arts to explore spirituality?
How did the great Persian and Indian poets and musicians formulate their practice?
How have music and poetry been used to subvert and reinforce systems of control and oppression?
Do we briefly reach the divine when we listen to the right music?

Cinema F'el Salon / انياب

Time: 6.00pm Doors / Film 7.30pm
Location: Multi Story, Level 6
Access: There is step-free access via a lift / The film will be subtitled
من الآخر
Screening: Anyab / انياب (1981 dir Mohamed Shebl)
It’s time for the next Cinema F’el Salon, and this one is a DOOZY.
We’re taking this event for our community of homebodies that hang, and relocating it to MULTI STORY at Peckham Levels. More room to نأنتخ tbh.
Our second event takes a pretty iconic pivot, out from the 50s eleganza and straight into the disco fever dream of 1981. We’re, of course, talking about Fangs/Anyab/انياب
The Film: Anyab/انياب dir. Mohamed Shebl (1981) - Starring: Ahmed Adawiyya, Mona Gabr, Ali El Haggar
A young couple, who dream of living in an apartment with a television, are on their way to a NYE party when they suffer car troubles. Somethingsomething foreboding castle for shelter, somethingsomething Dracula somethingsomething insane musical numbers, it’s all very familiar. And yet…
So it’s billed as ‘Egypt’s answer to the Rocky Horror Show’ but it’s so much more than that. Liberties are pushed to the max (looking at the Pink Panther interlude that accompanies the world’s most extended metaphor of Egypt’s socio-economic climate). Sexual politics? Actors that aren’t your usual whitewashed cast? A whole load of fabulous murder and disco and fire? Say less, blease.
*Content warning - this film contains footage of a chicken being killed.
Everybody is welcome.
Cinema f’el Salon is brought to you by NAFS Space x Salt and Sister Studio
Cinema f’el Salon is a soft landing of a film night. A safe, non-judgemental, non-shaming space to be authentic. If, like us, your experience of the salon growing up was that it was stiff and off-limits, you can rejoice in reclaiming that very space in the name of comfort and connection.
We’ll gather around a film from the golden era of Cairo cinema, watching and noticing what was always there: queerness in the margins, in the looks and gestures, in the subtext. Y3ni مش جديد علينا, it’s part of the archive, part of the language. We azz-azz on lib and za3tar popcorn, and gag on the timeless gorgeousness of our friends Faten, Shadia, So3ad, Omar and Hind, to name a few.
Post-screening, we farfesh, with space to discuss the film - and anything else. كلّه ماشي.
Your ticket includes the screening and a snack (if you want to be very 3ammo about it and bring more treats with you in your jacket lining, feel free). Drinks will be available at the bar, and all you need to do is turn up in your comfiest galabiyya, we won’t judge .
