Fragments of Palestine
A wedding that becomes a tragic exodus of dispossession, occupation and oppression. Facing an ultra-organised enemy the resistance hides and acts in the most unthinkable places. Funeral of a martyr who refuses to be buried. A concrete wall and electric fences that strangle the mountains. Children born to die for freedom. The normality of an absurd life in a refugee camp. Love at curfew hours and late night dreams about the sea.
Fragments of Palestine is an attempt to bridge the gap between life and art. Utilising primarily physical means, the picture goes beyond the verbal narrative. The cry of the individual is expressed through a universal language.
