    Synopsis: In an attempt to record a standstill time, the filmmaker examines her intimate life with her aging parents over the course of 8 years since the beginning of war in Syria. The film is questioning a life style, and scenes of isolation and stagnancy that overshadow life in Syria. In parallel, it is observing an intimate, human affection that’s maybe rooted deeper than we may imagine.

Co-presented with Al Markaz.
