Shooq 2017

"Shooq," aka "The Wanderer" is an ethereal film portrait of Jordanian artist, Mamdouh Bisharat, who like Kurt Schwitters and Joseph Cornell, uses psychological collages of fragments of found objects to make sense of the world around him. We see a solitary Mamdouh in his house as a witness to the disappearing moment around him and weighing time, remembered and lost in the Arab world today.
