This film (2017, by Alexandra Dols) takes us on a journey both within our own minds and on the roads of Palestine, led by Palestinian psychiatrist and writer Dr. Samah Jabr. An heir to anticolonial psychiatrist Dr. Frantz Fanon, she exposes the psychological strategies and consequences of Israeli occupation, and the ways in which Palestinians have learned to cope. In this multi-voiced movie, interviews and chronicles are intertwined together with poetic escapes suggesting the invisible dimension of Palestinian streets and landscapes. From this occupied and fragmented Palestine, women and men share their stories of resistance and resilience.
