LAND CONFISCATION ORDER 06/24/T


Directed by | Larissa Sansour

Genre documentary  |  Length: 11mins  |  Year of production: 2006


In her video piece Land Confiscation Order 06/24/T, Denmarkbased Palestinian video artist Larissa Sansour explores the notion of territory as constitutive of not only national, but also personal identity. LCO 06/24/T is a requiem for a small piece of land and a house made of stone. It in turn becomes a eulogy for the dream of viable statehood and exposes Palestinian identity as a block that not only political and cultural, but also geographical factors are chopping away at on a daily basis.
