My Palestine
Synopsis
Sabrina, Rawad, Said, and other young Palestinian refugees born in Lebanon enter the photo studio one by one. The rules of the game are simple. They all choose a backdrop for their portrait from among four mythical cities: New York, Paris, Beirut, and Jerusalem. They each talk about themselves, project, and question. They all share a nostalgia for a land they don’t know and they may never know: Palestine.

Butterfly, by Florence Miailhe
A man swims in the sea. This brings back memories. They are all connected to water, from his early childhood to his adult life. This will be the story of his last swim.
