The Memory (1975)

Origin: Syria | Documentary | Director: Mohamad Malas | 13 minutes

An elderly woman lives on her own in the small town of Quneitra. She talks to her many cats and chickens, to the film team and to herself. She listens to the stories on the radio. She walks through the rubble.

She remained in Quneitra when the Israeli army occupied the Golan Heights, and all through the war of 1973. When the occupation forces withdrew, they destroyed the city to make it inhabitable. Few individuals returned. The woman says she used to write down things about the many things that happened. All is gone, what is left is only the memory.
