Between the Sea and Dreams

Creator

Dabdoub, Nadim

Abstract

Between the sea and dreams is a personal journey through memory, identity, and creativity. Through a continuous monologue spoken in Arabic, mixing old footage and quiet moments, the film explores what it means to belong home when home is scattered across different places. Shot in sepia with a nostalgic, grainy texture, it reflects on finding identity beyond borders and paperwork. Creativity becomes both an escape and a way to piece together a fragmented sense of self. Blending documentary and storytelling styles, Between the Sea and Dreams is a poetic process, one shaped by place, language, and the creative act itself.
