Bye Bye Tiberias on four generations of Palestinian women.

An evening film screening at the Women's Museum, part of the Film London x Womens Museum programme, presented by T A P E Collective. In response to the exhibition Materiality of Memory, about the power of objects to carry memory, the collective celebrates intangible modes of history and oral storytelling between generations of women. The film shown is Bye Bye Tiberias, which follows actress Hiam Abbass who left her village, mother, grandmother and seven sisters to pursue her dream, as her filmmaker daughter Lina returns with her thirty years later. Set between past and present, the film pieces together images of today, nineties family footage and historical archives to tell the stories of four generations of daring Palestinian women who keep their legacy alive despite exile, dispossession and heartbreak.
