Kansainvälisen solidaarisuuden teemakuukausi huipentuu Anarkino-näytökseen. Illan elokuvana on Kobanê (2022), jonka ensiesitys Suomessa oli tammikuussa.
Kobanê on kurdilainen sotaelokuva Kobanên piirityksestä lokakuusta 2014 tammikuuhun 2015. Elokuva keskittyy kurdinaisten rooliin ISISin vastaisessa taistelussa.
Elokuva seuraa Zohran, 32-vuotiaan YPJ-taistelijan, vaiheita ja hänen päätymistään yksikkönsä komentajaksi, kun edellinen komentaja pakenee taistelukentältä. Zohra johtaa kurdijoukkoja murtamaan Kobanên piirityksen ja vapauttamaan kaupungin huolimatta siitä, että ISISillä on vahvempi armeija ja raskaammat aseet.
“Despite being outnumbered and outgunned, a female Kurdish fighter leads her fellow fighters in the resistance to defend their city “Kobane” from the deadly threat of ISIS. A real story of war, sacrifice, love, and hope that kept the whole world on tenterhooks.”
“The story of the film was composed through first-hand interviews with the real protagonists of the real story. Most of the main cast are first-time actors, and some of them are real life fighters.”
“Principal photography of Kobane Film started in February of 2021 in real locations within Kobane city and its countryside. The film set was constantly under threat by the Turkish army, having their drones following the film crew most of the time and shooting at the film set on several occasions, leading to canceling many scenes due to the high security risk.”
