Larissa Sansour has represented Denmark at the 58th Venice Biennale in 2019 with the two-channel film In Vitro, set in Bethlehem and she received excellent reviews. Together with Soren Lind they utilize the language of science fiction cinema and examine the identity dimension of memory. In the cold and otherworldly environment of the underground shelter, an intergenerational confrontation takes place, connecting the personal experience with archival film material referring to the troubled history of Palestine from the early 20th century till 1967. The exhibition is part of the sidebar events' program of the 23rd Documentary Festival of Thessaloniki.
