El-Tahri has collaborated with major media outlets such as BBC and PBS, producing influential documentaries that delve into and illuminate the complexities of decolonial movements and the significance of the alliances, which connect Africa, Latin America, and Asia in the context of global social and political transformations. On September 29, 2024, at Cinema House in Sofia, Jihan will present and discuss three of her most important films: Cinema Died at Camp Boiro (2017), CUBA: An African Odyssey (2007), and Nasser: Egypt’s Modern Pharaohs (2015). 

The event will conclude with a DJ set by Jihan at the Cush.BAR at 20:00.
