In exile in Granada, the Syrian sculptor Assem Al-Bacha is working on a huge head of the poet Al-Maari. At first, this head was to be a “nomadic” work that would travel around the world before being repatriated to free Syria. It never left Assem’s shed, as a reminder of the international indifference towards the Syrian tragedy.
Alone with this head, Assem continues to work, not realising that it looks less and less like Al-Maari and more and more like himself.
