★ 8.0·2023·1h 18min·Documentary and Science Fiction
A story of a city that once connected Palestine to the world — what it once was, what it is now, and what it could have become.
Overview
A sci-fi documentary that follows the rise and fall of Lyd — a 5,000-year-old metropolis that was once a bustling Palestinian town until it was conquered when the State of Israel was established in 1948. As the film unfolds, a chorus of characters creates a tapestry of the Palestinian experience of this city and the trauma left by the massacre and expulsion.
