SUMMARY:Chicago Public Library Event -  Global Lens 2012 Film Screening—Qarantina  
DESCRIPTION:<p><strong><em>Qarantina,</em></strong>&nbsp;<strong>Oday Rasheed</strong><strong>, Iraq</strong><strong>, 2010, 90 minutes</strong></p>
<p>A broken family under an incestuous patriarch lives uneasily within the gated courtyard of a dilapidated Baghdad house. The pregnant daughter has fallen silent, finding some protection from the patriarch&rsquo;s young second wife and his preteen son. Meanwhile, hard up for money, the household must live with a sullen and imperious boarder, a contract killer. In such a house, though, it may be that freedom and safety actually lie beyond the gates. Iraqi filmmaker Oday Rasheed&rsquo;s second feature gorgeously captures contemporary Baghdad&rsquo;s moody interior and stunned atmosphere, echoed in performances by a formidable cast who suggest unexpected resilience in the wake of catastrophe. Arabic, with English subtitles.</p>
