The story is about landmines and their impact on lives. It follows a Canadian/Iraqi graffiti artist who goes to Yemen amidst the heated conflict. He meets with the demining teams, local artists and the community to create “moments” of relief. The graffiti are reflections of the artist’s and the community’s experiences during this obscurely pivotal point in history. Children unfazed by the daily risks of an exploding landmine, observe the new art, struggling families gossip about the foreign visitors and the new colours they brought to town. Ambivalent emotions and challenges create a tone of hope and an authentic documentation of the threats of landmines and power of dialogue.
Salma, a widely known presenter, is filming a poetry show about Tarfa, the pre-Islamic poet. With a sand storm disrupting the episode shoot and Salma’s son being lost for days, the presenter remains calm. Perhaps too calm, her mind distantly quiet, the loud crew then drives off forgetting her at the location. On her phone, busy talking, Salma is walking and something far from reality is about to occur. Will it concern the subject of the show? Will the strange encounter amend the misapprehension?
