You can feel the history on every corner, and that’s what I tried to convey in this sequence”, – told Skander, Hlif. “I don’t do cards, do not remove the cumbersome scenery, I want the audience looking at all the things, places and other people differently than I used to, digging themselves deeper into the essence of what they saw,” he added.
