Hey! Don’t Forget the Cumin (2008)
Three voices: Jamil and Sarah both absent and left our planet. Darina is resisting. All three are linked to text. All three choose the artistic expression form in their bid for freedom. Through the film, we try to draw the circle/relation amongst: Life, place, exile / voice, text, art / madness, suicide/ death. We may realise that this circle may also be the path we all follow: To fall or not to fall?
