Episode 5: "Wajib" and When We Get to Tell Our Stories

from The Middle Geeks

In the latest episode of The Middle Geeks, we review Wajib by Palestinian director Annemarie Jacir. Mae and Swara talk about what we enjoyed about the film, and how we thought it offered a realistic portrayal of families dealing with generational oppression and how meaningful it is for Annemarie Jacir to tell an intimate story of her people. We also discuss the great news that the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series for Disney+ will have an Iranian-British writer with Hossein Amini, how we're looking forward to the Arrow spinoff starring the Canaries, and give our recommendations of what to watch. (We start our Wajib discussion at the 21:12 mark.) Follow us on Twitter: @TheMiddleGeeks, @MaeAbdu, @swarzseawalker Subscribe to The Middle Geeks on Hard NOC Media
