In the 60s & 70s, Hashem el Madani used to take his super 8 camera with him on holidays to film his family and friends. This video looks at how a still photographer - like him - conceived movement and spontaneously directed his friends and family including himself. The rushes used in the five movements were shot in the late 1960s and early seventies in Egypt, and in touristic sites in Lebanon such as the Beiteddine Palace, Kfarhonah (covered with snow), a picnic site in a pine forest in Dahr el Ramleh, and Jezzine, which used to be Madani's summer residence.
