When I Saw You
Jordan, 1967. Tarek (11) and his mother Ghaydaa are in a refugee camp, separated from Tarek’s father and hoping against hope that he will one day turn up. When I Saw You is the story of people affected by the times around them, in search of something more in their lives.
They are living in a kind of eternally deferred state in this grim camp: their lives are on hold in emotional exile and it is miserable. Despite, or because of, being smart, Tarek doesn’t do well in the makeshift schoolroom – and runs away, finding himself in a guerrilla training camp, where he is taken up as a mascot, and sees a future for himself as a fighter.
The tickets for this screening are free.
