Sayegh Group backs Palestinian historical drama 'Palestine 36'
Sayegh Group proudly announces its financial support for the Palestinian historical film Palestine 36, directed by internationally acclaimed filmmaker Annemarie Jacir. Under the patronage of Chairman Mr. Michael Sayegh and Roya Media Group CEO Mr. Fares Sayegh, this backing reaffirms the Group's longstanding commitment to the Palestinian cause and cultural preservation. Palestine 36 is a powerful drama set during the 1936 Palestinian revolt, an uprising led by farmers against British colonial rule. Taking place on the outskirts of Jerusalem, the film tells an epic story of resistance that was ultimately crushed by 20,000 British soldiers. The film marks the latest work by Jacir, a leading voice in Palestinian and international cinema. 'We are honored to support a cultural work that gives voice to the Palestinian struggle through the powerful medium of film,' said Mr. Michael Sayegh. 'This project is not just a film, it is a cultural testament to the resilience, identity, and history of the Palestinian people. We believe in the role of cinema as a force for dialogue and change.' Originally planned to be filmed in Palestine in October 2023, production was relocated to Jordan due to escalating violence and instability in the region. The cast includes a stellar lineup of Arab and international talent, such as Dhafer L'Abidine, Hiam Abbass, and Academy Award winner Jeremy Irons. Annemarie Jacir is widely recognized as a pioneer of Arab cinema. Her films have premiered at Cannes, Berlin, Venice, Toronto, and other major international festivals. She was the first Palestinian female director to make a feature film, Salt of This Sea, which was also her second film to premiere at Cannes. All three of her feature films have been Palestine's official entries to the Academy Awards. Her award-winning film When I Saw You received the Best Asian Film prize at the Berlin International Film Festival, earning Jordan its first major international award. Wajib, another standout work, garnered 36 international awards, including honors at Mar del Plata, Dubai, and London film festivals. Palestine 36 promises to be another landmark in Jacir's career and is highly anticipated by audiences and critics worldwide. Roya TV will play a strategic role in supporting the film through an integrated media campaign encompassing public relations, marketing, and broadcasting. The network will provide extensive media coverage, including exclusive interviews with the cast and crew, behind-the-scenes footage, and promotional segments during peak viewing hours to maximize outreach. Roya is also coordinating with various media outlets to amplify coverage of the film's production and distribution phases. This collaboration aims to raise global awareness of the Palestinian cause and highlight its historical narrative through this powerful cinematic work. With this contribution, Sayegh Group continues its mission to uplift Palestinian narratives, promote cultural expression, and support artistic excellence from the region. Palestine 36 stands as a powerful addition to Palestinian cinema and a vital retelling of history that deserves international attention.

Lebanon mourns iconic composer Ziad Rahbani
Ammon News - Hundreds of people in Lebanon paid tribute Monday to iconic composer, pianist and playwright Ziad Rahbani, who died over the weekend. His mother, Fayrouz, one of the Arab world's most esteemed singers, made a rare public appearance. Rahbani, also known as a political provocateur, died Saturday at age 69. The cause of death was not immediately known. His passing shocked much of the Arab world, which appreciated his satire, unapologetic political critique and avante-garde, jazz-inspired compositions that mirrored the chaos and contradictions of Lebanon throughout its civil war from 1975 until 1990. He also composed some of his mother's most famous songs. The Rahbani family was a cornerstone in Lebanon's golden era of music theater that today is steeped in idealism and nostalgia in a troubled country. Top Lebanese political officials and artists paid tribute after the death was announced. Hundreds of people holding roses and photos gathered by Khoury Hospital near Beirut's busy Hamra district, solemnly singing some of his most famous songs and applauding as a vehicle carrying his body left its garage. The vehicle made its way to a church in the mountainous town of Bikfaya before burial in the family cemetery. Fayrouz, 90, had spent many years away from the public eye. Wearing black sunglasses and a black veil, she greeted visitors who came to pay respects. She had not been seen publicly since photos surfaced of her meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron, who visited her residence in 2020 to award her France's highest medal of honor. In recent years, Rahbani also appeared less in the public eye, yet his influence never waned. Younger generations rediscovered his plays online and sampled his music in protest movements. He continued to compose and write, speaking often of his frustration with Lebanon's political stagnation and decaying public life.
