FLUXCAPACITOR

In the rural outskirts of Gaza City a small community of farmers, the Samouni extended family, is about to celebrate a wedding. It's going to be the first celebration since the latest war. Amal, Fuad, their brothers and cousins have lost their parents, their houses and their olive trees. The neighborhood where they live is being rebuilt. As they replant trees and plow fields, they face their most difficult task: piecing together their own memory. Through these young survivors' recollections, Samouni Road conveys a deep, multifaceted portrait of a family before, during and after the tragic event that changed its life forever.

_La Strada dei Samouni_ / _Samouni Road_ is an Italian documentary about the life of the Samouni family before and after an attack known as the 'Zeitoun incident' during the Israel - Palestinian conflict of 2009. Animation is used to describe the events leading up to the attack and the attack itself, while standard filming captures the aftermath. The film is like a long funeral cortège on the LA motorways, it's a lengthy parade of sad images that gets lost along the way.
