In her first fiction feature film, director Rand Abou-Fakher (she/her) explores the notion of forgiveness as long as our pain is not acknowledged. And memory as a sacred material on the way to heal. As well as the searching to belong in displacement and double life. With her unique visual approach and experimental way of directing, Rand sometimes, pleasantly blurs the line between fiction and reality.
