This Haunting Memory That Is Not My Own
Panos Aprahamian / Lebanon, Qatar, United Kingdom / 30' / 2021.
Synopsis

Through semi-fictional storytelling, This Haunting Memory That Is Not My Own shines a light on how economic growth and environmental decay are interlinked and entrenched in social and ecological injustice. The film addresses forms of extraction and violence inflicted on human and nonhuman bodies and the ecosystem along the shorelines of Beirut, the city’s port, and around the Karantina district, a dumping ground for the unwanted - things and bodies alike.

• Screenwriter Panos Aprahamian
