Movie

Life in Al Barr

Shot in glimmering black-and-white reminiscent of classic silver-nitrate cinema, Sissako's 9-minute film was photographed over the course of seven days in March 2017 in Rawda Al Ghadriat, in the Northern Desert of Qatar, and features members of the Bedouin Al Naemi family, who provided some of the props and animals, including the bait al-sha'r-or nomad's tent.
