Summary
With Hasan in Gaza
Palestinian filmmaker Kamal Aljafari comes across three MiniDV tapes in his archive, shot in Gaza in 2001. The footage was captured during a journey in search of a man he had met in prison in 1989. At the time, he was accompanied by Hasan, a local guide who led him through the northern and southern parts of the Gaza Strip. The camera records streets, landscapes, and everyday encounters - fleeting impressions of a place erased by war and destruction, yet preserved as a fragment of lived reality in these images. From the restored material emerges a cinematic mosaic, blending personal memory with documentary observation. The film reflects on loss, impermanence, and the question of how images can preserve history.
