Why Do I See You in Everything?

Overview

Qusay and Nabil, two Syrian friends in exile, witness a cycle of violence, from dictatorship to democracy. Scenes of their previous revolutionary past in Syria intertwine with images of police repression in Berlin, while the violence that persists after Assad's fall paints a picture of a world where seeing men carry weapons seems more natural than seeing them touch each other tenderly. Between documentary and fiction, this film invents a queer language where a touch becomes political, care becomes resistance, and love a way to oppose violence.
