Dilbar. 2013
HD video en blanco y negro, proyección
Dilbar is the portrait of a city builder, one of a million Bangladeshi workers currently living in the UAE. The title character, whose name means "full of heart", is a construction worker on the new art spaces of the Sharjah Art Foundation. The film presents the physical and spiritual transmigration of this voiceless soul as he is driven by the warm winter into a "sleeping" existence that moves between the museum and the labour camp. This comatose journey slowly turns into a symphony of dreams and hallucinations, as his senses are possessed by the unseen water in the desert and he becomes part of a source that feeds the trees, birds, machines and buildings. The film transports this "sleeper" across the boundaries of economic and social status, of meaning, and of life and death.
Obra realizada con el apoyo de Sharjah Art Foundation.
