Who But When, How

Who But When, How is an autobiographical work that traces the director’s return to Israel in the midst of its traumatic moment and horrific acts in Gaza. As his aging father suffers the onset of dementia, Sharim’s poetic meditations on loss are juxtaposed against the conflicted, agonizing histories of Palestine and Israel, and a destabilized future.
