This Haunting Memory (That Is Not My Own)
تطاردني ذكرى ليست لي
Panos Aprahamian

"This Haunting Memory That Is Not My Own is a film essay that draws upon oral traditions, speculative histories, and Climate-fiction in an attempt to scout for the spectral presence of past traumas and unknown futures in bodies, structures, and places that helped create and/or dwell in and around Beirut’s port and the city's quarantine district. Through incisive semi-fictional storytelling, the film 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/nonhuman bodies and the ecosystem along the shorelines of Beirut."
