Starring: Fatima Hassouna, Sepideh Farsi
PUT YOUR SOUL ON YOUR HAND AND WALK offers an intimate, first-hand perspective on life under siege in Gaza, captured through video calls between director Sepideh Farsi and 25-year-old Palestinian photojournalist and poet Fatma Hassona. Combining raw immediacy with deep humanity, the film captures daily life during the conflict through the eyes and unwaveringly optimistic presence of Fatma, a talented photographer whose generation is trapped in an endless cycle of war, famine, and resistance. This essential document now stands as a heartfelt memorial and final testament: Fatma was tragically killed in an airstrike one day after the film was announced as a selection of the Cannes Film Festival. – KinoLorber
