A tribute to the Gaza Strip, Ouroboros follows a man through five different landscapes and upsets the media's portrayal of trauma. A journey out of time that turns the end into a beginning, explores the question of the eternal return and what makes us move forward when all is lost.

In this unclassifiable work, a journey between experimental documentary and fiction, the filmmaker shakes up all the rules of cinema in order to find a new language that allows us to question not only the nature of cinema but also our way of thinking about issues related to the Middle East.
