This Day

Synopsis

A product of three years of research on the circulation of images in the Middle East, "This Day" is a geographical and internal trip across borders. It uses video and photography to communicate the states of mobility and closure in the contemporary divided geography of the region. In his working space, the video maker studies his first images, notes and recordings taken during the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 1982, against other invading images, trying to understand the mechanism of image production in a state of war.
