The party took place during the most crucial period of the Second World War and shows the Palestinian upper class engaged in theatrical frivolity. A voice-over describes the complex political situation of the time, seemingly so distant from the Palestinian situation today. Manna’s film invokes a forgotten history, where the melancholy faces attending the masquerade point towards the events after the Second World War that would irrevocably change the future of Palestine and its people."},{"locale":"nl","description":"In *A Sketch of Manners* (Een Zedenschets) wordt op basis van een archieffoto een verkleedpartij in Jeruzalem in 1942, georganiseerd door het Palestijnse Nationale Front lid Alfred Roch, nagespeeld.
