Born in 1993 in the village of Idhna, south of Hebron, Khalil carries the name of a brother he never met, a martyr whose memory lives on through family stories, photographs and letters. From childhood, he has grappled with this inherited identity. The turning point comes when he finds his own name engraved on his brother’s grave, confronting him with an unsettling question: is he living his own life, or someone else’s? Determined to understand, Khalil revisits the family archive and interviews relatives, reconstructing a portrait of the brother whose legacy overshadows him. He stages a symbolic confrontation, challenging the reasons for his naming and the emotional burden it carries. Khalil shapes his own identity through artistic expression. He moves to Ramallah, where he studies theatre, directing, acting and composing music. Performance becomes a means of self-discovery and resistance, yet expectations remain; his family and society still see him as a continuation of the martyr. When he finds an old recording of his brother’s voice singing during the First Intifada, he integrates it into his performances. Through this, he confronts history on stage, exploring the complex ties between name, memory, identity and the personal struggle for freedom.
