Through the power of suggestion, this video poem unites senses and sensations, inner and external rhythms and changes in time.

A dull landscape and the daily routine unfolds before Mrs Jarrar; inside of her, emotions and memories jostle against each other as she remembers the young body of her deceased husband, still the object of love and desire. Antiquated images, as worn out as the protagonist, explore this body, loved and cared for, gnawed by cancer: it’s a place of loss, grief, memory but also comfort.

In the autumn of her life, Mrs Jarrar can still hear her mother’s voice singing to her Abneti Alsaghira / My little girl; inside, she still feels like the little girl she once was.

This video is part of the installation video-poem Momentely Gone.
