A dazzling act of first-person filmmaking, Mahdi Fleifels A World - TopicsExpress



          

A dazzling act of first-person filmmaking, Mahdi Fleifels A World Not Ours immerses us in a strange and unique world: the Palestinian refugee camp of Ain el-Helweh (Sweet Spring) in Lebanon, hastily built in 1948 and now housing 70,000 refugees in one square kilometre. Fleifel spent his formative years in the camp in the 1980s before his family settled in Denmark, and for years he has been returning and keeping a video diary, his conversations with the camp residents offering an unfiltered take on life in Ain el-Helweh and the inhabitants grievances with Lebanon, Israel, and their own political leaders.
