DÛR

An elderly care agency in Germany assigns Khalil, a Kurdish Syrian immigrant, to care for a lonely German woman in her home in Essen; he finds himself submerged in his mother’s voice recordings coming via WhatsApp from the mountains of Afrin, as she describes the details of making 'Makdous' and her insistence on finding a way to send it to him despite the wartime siege.

Directed by Jwan Abdo, Reinhard Wiesemann
