Unmade Film: The Reconnaissance (2026)

Unfolding across the rugged terrain surrounding the abandoned settlement of Lifta, this cinematic portrait captures a landscape suspended in time just beyond Jerusalem’s city limits. The decaying courtyards and stone pathways serve as a poignant archive for the more than four hundred Palestinian communities displaced during the 1948 conflict. As one of the most intact surviving remnants of that era, the film leverages these quiet ruins to illuminate stories of heritage, loss, and historical memory.
