Hussein Darby, the last projectionist of Cinema Jenin in Palestine, thought it a golden opportunity. When a German NGO came to restore the theater, Hussein was ready to prove his skills. He believed that it would help him get his job back. To revive the 50-year-old projector, he travels across the West Bank and even attempts to enter Israel. But he doesn’t know that his era has already passed.
