Ours Is a Country of Words

Mathijs Poppe's film begins at an undetermined moment in the future when the Palestinian right of return becomes a reality, and families in the Shatila refugee camp begin to prepare for their return. What should they pack and who will they miss? Blending fiction and documentary, dreams and reality, "Ours Is a Country of Words" allows us to develop a deeper understanding of what it means to live in exile.
