The ongoing violence and oppression faced by Palestinians motivated me to create Two Cameras for Palestine. This documentary is an act of resistance, amplifying voices that are too often unheard. The film juxtaposes two perspectives: one camera documents the stories of Palestinians living in South Korea, while the other captures theatrical reenactments of their experiences. The camera also turns inward, reflecting my own role as a filmmaker navigating the ethics and responsibilities of storytelling.
Through this dual perspective, I aim to interrogate the power dynamics inherent in documentary filmmaking and explore the complex relationship between representation, empathy, and activism. By layering performance and reality, Two Cameras for Palestine seeks to create a space where personal and collective narratives converge—urging audiences to confront both the immediate and systemic injustices faced by Palestinians.
This film is not only a medium for storytelling but also a reflection of my own journey to understand how art can resist oppression and foster solidarity.
