Mahmoud al Massad / Jordan, Qatar, Netherlands / 2025 / 78 min
In a quiet alley in Amman, a run-down cinema stands on the brink of closure. As a filmmaker documents its final days, personal stories intertwine with political tensions. Archival footage of global conflicts, particularly from the Middle East, reflects the cinema's fate, illustrating how conflicts, power struggles, and historical ruptures permeate everyday life. Between decay and hope, an evocative reflection emerges on memory, geopolitical realities, and the lasting impact of history.
