Visit Iraq

The offices of the Iraqi Airways in Geneva have been abandoned due to the embargo on the country in the 1990s. But the place remains, like a haunting ghost, with all the elements of the time. Neighbours are interviewed and fears and fantasies are revealed.

Port of Memory

The port is Jaffa, and the protagonists are Palestinians who are waiting for the inevitable, namely the imminent expulsion, like an alarm clock in the morning, by the Israeli authorities. In a place that is being forcibly transformed, the only weapons left are the daily rituals that make those who live there human.
