Synopsis:
An experimental documentary film that follows martyr posters across cities, tracing how walls become a living archive of memory, loss, and resistance. Through close observation of weathered, torn, and repeatedly replaced images, that reflects on how public space preserves grief while time, violence, become witnesses to different ways of death
