Where Language Fails Us: A Concert Film with Dirar Kalas

"Where Language Fails Us" is a powerful new concert film exploring the sonics of solidarity through the world and work of Dirar Kalash.

Dirar Kalash is a Palestinian musician and sound artist whose work spans a wide range of musical and sonic practices within a variety of instrumental, compositional and improvisational contexts.

He is mostly known for his politically driven field recording / electro-acoustic project “The Sonic Front”, and his politically charged compositions like “ we can’t breathe” and “by any means necessary”.

Through conversations and reflections with Dirar Kalash, composer and filmmaker Sami El-Enany delves into the politics of listening, sound as survival and what answers music might offer us when our humanity is in question.

Directed by Sami El-Enany.

Produced by Palestine Deep Dive.
