From Palestine with Love (Postcard from the Future)
Commissioned by the Locarno Film Festival for its 75th anniversary, 11 international filmmakers were invited to create a ‘Postcard from the Future’ from their respective countries. Annemarie Jacir’s entry, From Palestine with Love, depicts in one potent shot a concrete barrier wall falling down to reveal a tranquil beach with waves crashing softly at the shore and a child playing in the sand.
