A woman takes a journey back to Palestine. She meets Hasan, her imaginary lover, and through his fantasy world finds the remnants of hope in characters living a harsh reality.
‘My Love Awaits Me by the Sea’ is a poetic documentary that narrates the story of its director, Mais Darwazah, who takes a first-time journey to her homeland of Palestine. She leaves a secluded reality and follows a lover she has never met; Hasan, a Palestinian artist, who unveils a beautiful and utopian world to her. Fairytale and reality are woven together to question the elusiveness of place and the need to believe in dreams.
