An intimate dialogue that weaves back and forth between representations of a figure (of resistance) and subject with, Soha Bechara ex-Lebanese National Resistance fighter in her Paris dorm room taped (during the last year of the Israeli occupation) one year after her release from captivity in El-Khiam torture and interrogation centre (S. Lebanon) where she had been detained for 10 years, 6 years in isolation. Revising notions of resistance, survival and will, recounting to death, separation and closeness; the overexposed image and body of a surviving martyr speaking quietly and directly into the camera juxtaposed against her self and image, not speaking of the torture but of the distance between the subject and loss, of what is left behind and what remains.

Original source Image description: Illustration of a wombat from 1863 showing a close-up frontal view of the compact, furry marsupial resting low among grass and small leafy plants. The wombat has a broad head, small rounded ears, dark eyes, a large black nose, and sharp claws visible on its front paws. The background is softly shaded with subtle trees. The drawing emphasizes the wombat’s dense fur texture and sturdy build, typical of the species native to Australia. The scientific name “Phascolomys Wombat” is printed below the image.
