OFF FRAME AKA REVOLUTION UNTIL VICTORY

2016, Palestine/France/Jordan/Lebanon/USA/GB

Mohanad Yaqubi

With the help of rediscovered archive materials, that he assembled in the course of his seven-year research in the archives of Paris, Rome, London, Amman and Beirut, the director presents a panoramic view of the modern history of Palestine. The film borrows moments from militant films of the sixties down to the eighties. The only coherent relationship between all the shots, clips and sequences is that they all hover on the border between fiction and propaganda, dream and reality, in order to tell the story of a fighting people. Of a people in search of its own image.
