MiG

If the “MiG” didn’t show up, it could have been just another ordinary day. But it was there, looking for love to shatter and blow away the features of my exile “the camp,”Palestine’s twin.”

In this lyrical first-person film, the filmmaker bears witness to the aftermath of a direct Syrian regime strike on the Palestinian refugee camp of Yarmouk, the first since the Syrian civil war began in 2011. The bombing, which hit a school and a mosque, caused a massive exodus of refugees from the camp—upwards of 70% of its residents by some estimates.
