On August 19, 1985, Khalil’s maternal uncle, Alfred Junior Kettaneh was abducted. He is still reported missing today, like the seventeen thousand other people kidnapped during the Civil War and whose fate remains officially unknown. In March 2001, the artists stumbled on Kettaneh’s archive of photographs and films. There was one Super 8 film reel that had not been developed. Stored in a yellow bag for fifteen years, it had survived the ravages of the war and a fire that destroyed the house. After much deliberation, the artists decided to send it to the lab. The film turned out to be mostly a bright white. But suddenly, a barely noticeable presence appeared and vanished. Using color correction techniques, the artists delved into the layers of the film, attempting to revive a presence –a ghostly image that resists disappearance lingering like a mourning without closure, memories whose traces are fated to remain.
