Marwa Arsanios. Who is Afraid of Ideology? Part 5: Right of Passage

Marwa Arsanios (Washington DC, 1978) presents Who is Afraid of Ideology?, Part 5: Right of Passage, a co-production with Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo (Turin) and Artium Museoa (Vitoria-Gasteiz). This film is the fifth episode in the ongoing series Who is Afraid of Ideology? (2017-), a long-term project in which the artist explores issues related to property, law, economics and ecology. From land rights to forms of community self-organisation and self-defence, Arsanios examines strategies used by different communities to confront colonial-capitalist structures-whether familial, state or corporate-in territories in Kurdistan, Iraq, north-western Syria, Lebanon and Tolima, Colombia.
