The breathtaking landscapes of Western Sahara don't seem to have a memory. Yet, the eyes of its people bear enduring signs of the tragedy that has marked their existence for decades. Through small details, fragments of a lasting conflict find their way to the screen. Masterfully shot, Galb'Echauf is a hymn to the power of cinema to resist oblivion. 



A film by Abdessamad El Montassir selected for the Festival Vision du Réel 2021 in the category Opening Scenes.
