The French Research Center of the Arabian Peninsula (CEFREPA) organized a presentation entitled “Screening and presentation of the documentary film Monumenting” with Dr. Anahi Alviso-Marino on November 19, 2024.
This session was dedicated to the screening of Monumenting (in-progress). As monuments continue to be toppled, relocated and reassessed all over the world, this documentary took us to Kuwait City, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sanaa, questioning what a monument is and asking what a monument could be. Following the screening, Anahi Alviso-Marino, Deema Alghunaim, Lolwa AlKandari and Zahra Almahdi talked about the film, the research journey of its making and playing as research.
