Why Do I See You In Everything?

This highly lyrical film takes root in Syria and branches out to Berlin as it paints the relationship of two friends navigating memories, footage and current events from back home. The film stitches together a loose narrative as it examines political violence all while affirming love and care as acts of resistance. As such, it is equal parts a sweeping epic across geographies and an intimate lucid dream shared between two friends.

Why Do I See You In Everything? marks Rand Abou Fakher’s debut hybrid documentary. It premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam this past January. (JH)
