SELAMLIK

In Damascus, two men hide beneath their bed, not afraid to die but afraid to die apart.

 After years of separation, Furat (37) now a writer exiled in Sweden travels to Córdoba to reunite with Pierre (27), the love of his life whom he left behind when fleeing the war in Syria. Furat hopes to revive the love they once shared. But Pierre arrives guarded, carrying a secret that will change everything.

 During this tense and intimate weekend, memories of their relationship begin to resurface: their farewell, their shared home, a beloved dog, demonstrations for freedom and the night they first met at the dawn of the Arab Spring, when love and freedom still seemed possible.

 As past and present close in around them, they must face the truth: their love is still alive, but they are no longer the people who once dreamed of freedom together.
