In the wake of their public encounter in 2009, Marcel Ophuls and Jean-Luc Godard planned a collaborative essay film about the histories and future of the Middle East. Godard abandoned the project before shooting began, and Ophuls continued by adapting the style he had developed from The Sorrow and the Pity (1969) to The Troubles We've Seen (1993). The initial funding soon ran out, but Ophuls kept attempting to give shape to the edited fragments until shortly before his death in 2025. Presented here is the final form of the unfinished film. With English subtitles.
