The Swedish Peace Society - Last night I had a dream

Karim Fakih

UNCUT

It has been a fantastic collaboration with the Swedish Peace to develop this idea. As a director, I love creating works that go beyond the obvious and contain layers of meaning. By integrating metaphors and surrealism into the film, we attempted to convey the complex consequences of weapons and war in a subtle and artistic manner. I was truly drawn to this project because it addressed something I find important and meaningful. Additionally, I have always felt a desire to use my work to provoke thought and engage people in important societal issues. This was an opportunity to do just that. I hope the film becomes not only a visually and emotionally engaging piece but also a thought-provoking experience that inspires dialogue and reflection on these crucial societal issues.
