Exiled Iranian director Sepideh Farsi began her film as a series of conversations with Palestinian photojournalist Fatma Hassona. Through stuttering video calls made throughout the course of a year (filmed on Farsi's phone, amplifying their distance), Hassona shares her everyday life and her dreams while giving an on-the-ground perspective of Israel's unrelenting attacks. However, when news broke that Hassona and her family were killed in an Israeli airstrike just after the film's Cannes premiere was announced, the film became a tragic and devastating memorial. More importantly, the film is an ode to the radiant and resilient spirit Hassona shows in the film.
