About the films

Upshot by Maha Haj

After suffering unimaginable loss, Suleiman and Lubna retreat to an isolated farm, where they tend to their crops and engage in impassioned debates about their five children's choices - until one day a stranger arrives to reveal a harrowing truth.

When I Saw You by Annemarie Jacir

Some people follow the masses, others the sun.

When I Saw You is the story of people affected by the times around them, in search of something more in their lives. A journey full of adventure, love, humour, and the desire to be free, but most of all this is a story about that moment in a person‘s life when he wakes up and finds the whole world is open and everything is possible - that moment you feel most alive.
