Three MiniDV tapes from 2001 showing life in Gaza were recently rediscovered, preserving a vanished time and place. What began as a search for a former prison mate from 1989—a man lost to time and war—turned into an unexpected journey across Gaza with Hasan, a local guide whose fate is unknown. The camera captures fleeting everyday moments, transforming this forgotten footage into a cinematic reflection on memory, loss, and the passage of time, showing a Gaza that may never return.
