Abstract

To read art and cinema from the vision of an Eastern Jewish woman, which in itself constitutes a challenge and an assimilation of the dimensions of the Zionist colonial pattern, and its ethnically- founded difference in the direction of human groups to which it has been moved ,His concept of the occupation of the land,which often crystallized in the context of stereotypical bias as it appeared simultaneously with the Zionist nationalism.Therefore, this research presents the vision of Shohat's work in its critique of the Zionist colonial cinematic narrative that oversaw the Israeli film industry. Through her studies, she shows the transcendent position of the Western point of view towards a lack of representation of Eastern Jews in their films, as a result of the policy of isolation practiced by the transcendent Western stance against them, by questioning their Judaism, which did not find an echo in the midst of European Jewish nationalism, as the research explores Shohat reading of the artistic field. Through the works of Michael Rakowitz and his evoked representation of the Jews of the East by his re-representation of the Gulf War and his founding of the Dar Al sulh, in which he evokes Iraqi foods at peace tables between all sects of Arabs and Muslims for the purpose of asking to return again from exile to the original homeland.
