Love Letters to the Apocalypse
Who ?
I’m a filmmaker, producer, and writer based in Berlin, spiritually located somewhere between Beirut, a philosophy book, and a dangerously optimistic production schedule.
I make films about history, politics, exile, and people the only species that documents its mistakes, archives them carefully, and then repeats them in higher resolution.
Why ?
Because reality has great characters, terrible dialogue, and no editor.
I’m drawn to what history conveniently crops out: private wounds, political absurdities, unreliable memories, and people who survive without issuing a press release.
Cinema probably won’t save the world.
But it can catch it lying.
What?
I write the problem, direct the chaos, and produce the invoice.
My work moves between documentary and fiction, where inconvenient truths meet beautiful images and pretend the encounter was planned. I follow stories from the first reckless idea to the final cut through research, writing, filming, editing, and the sacred cinematic tradition of fixing everything in post.
When ?
For more than a decade, I’ve been making films from memories, political wreckage, stubborn hope, and budgets that clearly expected a shorter story.
I begin when the official version starts sounding suspiciously polished and stop when the final cut becomes slightly less dishonest.
Where ?
work between Berlin and Beirut, Europe and the Middle East and wherever history has left ordinary people to clean up after it.
Borders matter to governments. Stories tend to ignore them.
