The Dream Collector
Without dialogue, this film tells an ancient story – a wish you can only whisper to seashells before casting them into the ocean. That is how dreams may come true. But in Gaza, where the sea is closed to dreams, the Dream Collector appeared. He gathered seashells bearing wishes and hung them on his bedroom wall, where hidden hopes turned into paintings. The film was made in 2021 during the Digital Storyboarding workshop at the French Cultural Center in Palestine.
