A documentary based on the director’s personal experience of nighttime displacement during the war on Gaza, presenting stories that were not covered by the media.
A documentary journey rooted in the director’s personal experience since her first displacement on 13 October 2023. Through a nocturnal journey across displacement camps, ‘+477 Nights’ immerses us in the daily lives of displaced people, capturing moments of joy, grief and loss. The project documents the lives of women inside the tents, exploring their private needs and the fragile sense of privacy they struggle to preserve amid displacement. It seeks to reveal the realities endured by the people of Gaza in the darkness, beyond conventional media coverage, by following the director as she moves among displaced families and shares their everyday experiences. Her own personal journey becomes inseparable from the stories of those around her.
