About
(Jen Marlowe, 2025, Palestine, 35 min)
Join us for the Seattle premiere of the new documentary film Severed. Severed tells the story of Mohamad Saleh, an 18-year-old from Gaza who has lived through five major assaults on the Gaza Strip. In those attacks, he lost his home, family members, his best friends, and, at the age of 12, his leg. Mohamad was able to evacuate to Egypt after surviving seven months of genocide and remains in exile there, struggling to piece together the shattered fragments of his life. Through his eyes, the pain and trauma endured by thousands in Gaza are laid bare, alongside their remarkable strength, resilience, and determination to live.
Severed is produced by Donkeysaddle Projects, +972 Magazine and The Nation, in partnership with Just Vision.
This event is sponsored by Donkeysaddle Projects and the Northwest Film Forum, and co- sponsored by La Resistencia, Koro Rules the Sun, Multitude FIlms, and Black Lives Matter WA with support from the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture and King Countys 4Culture. Following the screening, there will be a panel discussion with the filmmakers followed by an in- depth conversation with our co-sponsorsLa Resistencia, Koro Rules the Sun, , moderated by Zahyr Lauren.
Please join us after the discussion for a brief reception in the NWFF lobby, providing an opportunity to get to know other Seattle-based community organizers and artists.
Please consider supporting Donkeysaddle Projects work in Gaza, via our Palestine Grassroots Distribution Project (PGDP).

Accessibility
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum's ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter.
The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject!
If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at rajah@nwfilmforum.org
