Mother of Fog (2024)

Directed by Farah Al Qasimi

Comedy · 29m

Farah Al Qasimi’s genre defying work questions Western-centric historiographies of the Gulf by engaging the mythic figure of the pirate. Departing from a fictional retelling of the 1819 siege of Al Dhayah fort Qasimi constructs a multi-layered portrait of imperialism on the high seas from the perspectives of an ancient jinn, the ghost of an Al Qasimi pirate, a Jack Sparrow Impersonator and a Victorian naval officer.
