KNOW HOPE (The Abstract and the Very Real) is a film by Omer Shamir about art and resistance in a time when Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza.
The film follows , a street artist known for his anonymous interventions, who is dealing with chronic illness. The anonymity of the hit-and-run street artist is replaced with intensive and intimate social interactions, exploring how personal and collective trauma can be transformed through art.
In this critical moment in history, this film shows the sickness of the land through personal stories of injuries and trauma caused by a century of colonization.
Free parking is available on the side of VSW, and there is ample free street parking available on and around King St. We ask that all attendees be respectful of the neighborhood when arriving and departing the screening.
