Khalas

Khalas is a 04:45 minute video work that aims to bring awareness to the appropriation of Egyptian cinema by the Western entertainment industry. Taher states that Egypt has a wide range of amazing cinema and history that belongs to the people of Masr and should not be molded and capitalized on by the likes of Hollywood.

The video features extremely fast alternating graphics of Egyptian cinema and Western footage appropriating Egyptian culture and history. 

Khalas was on show at:

171project.space, Arnhem

- N.O.B x Midwest, Amsterdam

- LUCA, Brussels
