Film nights at the Alt Lib (every other Wednesday) – Dugma – The Button
August 24, 2016 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Tonight’s feature is a documentary about a Syrian Suicide Bombing Group. Some of the content may be disturbing to some. Please use your discretion.
Dugma – The Button – An intimate portrait of a group of very different suicide bombers working for Al Qaeda in Syria. From the Saudi who loves singing and fried chicken, to a 26-year-old white British convert who worries a lot about his new wife, this remarkable film embeds with an unlikely bunch of “martyrdom seekers”, each waiting for their turn to go on a final mission, known by Jihadis as ‘Dugma’.
The Screening will be followed by a discussion. Come join in the conversation.
