I Have Been Watching You All Along

Fall Grants 2016 - Post-Production Stage

Rawda Al-Thani / Short Narrative / Qatar / 2017 / 10 min / Colour / Original Language: Arabic, No Dialogue / Interests: Arthouse

Synopsis

A young woman wanders about an abandoned cinema, rummaging through its storerooms and curiously exploring the mechanical and celluloid detritus that has been left behind. A sense of transgression is in the air – the woman is, after all, trespassing – and she finds herself constantly being watched by several men who, we assume, oversee the disused property. This vague threat notwithstanding, she projects scraps of old footage, creating a freeform narrative all her own, breathing new life into forgotten artifacts.
