Watching: Kites in Sahara

Overview

Short film filmed in February 2010 at the Sahrawi refugee camps in Tindouf (Algeria). A poetic look into the situation that refugees go through and into the conflict itself. Soundtrack by Palestinian musicians and Spanish rock band Amaral. “We want words that fly freely, like comets, we want to be the irrepressible wind that comes and goes… And can’t ever be trapped in any sand prison… We want words that fly freely. Invincible. Like comets…”
