 'in/tangible cartographies – new arab video' was commisioned by World Wide Video Festival 2001, and especially curated by Jayce Salloum.
Objects of desire within a moment of crisis, the changing urban environment
of Beirut shifting on its heels, two souls find themselves within a cycle of loss, departure, rupture and celebration. An impressive video letter inspired by a story of separation between two men. A visual essay on adulthood and sexuality within the context of a shifting culture having inclinations of openness yet facing the odds in the paradigms of tradition.
