Synopsis

Off Frame AKA Revolution Until Victory offers a panoramic view of the modern history of Palestine through the unseen lenses of unsung protagonists. Mohanad Yaqubi's long-awaited feature debut presents a rapid, non-didactic visual history carefully assembled over seven years of research in archives Paris, Rome, London, Amman and Beirut. Off Frame AKA Revolution Until Victory is a sensory parade of images both new and familiar, of moments of great historical rupture and quiet privacies that, together, present an original and subjective visual narrative that invites the viewer to consider both what is in and out of the picture.
