Runtime: 35 minutes
In Arabic and English, with English and Spanish subtitles
Severed tells the story of Mohamad Saleh, an 18-year-old from Gaza who has lived through five major assaults on the Gaza Strip. In those attacks, he lost his home, family members, his best friends, and, at the age of 12, his leg. Now living in exile in Egypt, Mohamad struggles to piece together the shattered fragments of his life. Through his eyes, the pain and trauma endured by thousands in Gaza are laid bare, alongside their remarkable strength, resilience, and determination to live.
Post-show discussion with local disability activists: Sabreen Akhter, Omar Alzeir, and Z Mayreni Lopez. Moderated by Sara Caplan.
