This film is about Damascus, an 11,000 years old city, the most ancient & precious of cities, set to the poetry of the world-famous Palestinian poet / author Mahmoud Darwish. More than three years have passed since the idea inception up to this moment.

This project was my companion during my staying abroad, it was like a friend and an enemy at the same time, sometimes I spend hours working on it, and sometimes I leave it for months.
