The screening event, organized by I-Dare for Sustainable Development in Amman, Jordan, took place on November 14, 2024, from 16:00 to 20:00. The featured film, Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom (2013), was attended by 22 participants (10 females and 12 males) as part of an ongoing initiative to host 15 screenings per partner organization.
The event provided an engaging space for dialogue, focusing on Nelson Mandela’s transformation from a lawyer to an activist, his imprisonment, and his leadership as South Africa’s first Black president. Key discussion points included themes of injustice, sacrifice, leadership, and reconciliation, with one attendee raising the thought-provoking question: “Would you forgive if you were in Mandela’s place?”
To ensure proper documentation and visibility, organizers captured photos and a short video reel while attendees signed an official attendance sheet. This event is part of a broader effort running from November 2024 to August 2025, aimed at fostering meaningful discussions through cinema.
