...everyday life. The footage surveys citizens of the city: artists drinking tea in a café, twin girls dancing in their living room, a man listening to an Arabic cover of “I Will Always Love You” as he drives through the barren Iraqi land. The colors are muted and hushed, as if curbed by the sanctions as well. For Chan, both experiences are connected.
