A shorts program exploring the chilling reality of people caught in inescapable situations, whether physical spaces, psychological states or societal constructs. Each of the characters in these films is forced to confront their confinement, either fighting for a way out or grappling with the disturbing reality of there being no escape.
Batman's Personal Issues uses a unique documentary approach, casting anonymous characters facing challenges that demand superheroic resilience. Saleem and Raya in Before We Heal present a darkly humorous situation with a couple trapped in an unusual predicament, while Hidden Lust explores the darker aspects of human nature within a marital dynamic. Exploring the pursuit of dreams and self-discovery, It's a Dream Only a Dream highlights how the closer we get to the meaning, the sooner we realize that we are dreaming. Stonewalled follows three strangers in a conservative society who navigate their sexuality and desires while grappling with societal constraints while Strawberry depicts Samir, a middle-aged Palestinian man yearning for a glimpse of the sea and the unexpected quest this leads him on. Rounding out the program, Warsha offers a glimpse of freedom through a construction worker's isolated space, and Siri Miri uses satire to highlight the challenges faced by Palestinian youth living under occupation where even technology proves unreliable.
