This tape focuses on the artist's separation from her Palestinian family, specifically her mother whose letters from Beirut form the video soundtrack. Hatoum photographed her mother in the shower during a brief family reunion. The personal and political are inextricably linked in a narrative that explores identity and sexuality against a backdrop of traumatic social rupture, exile and displacement.
