Those were the days when girls were prettier, when eyes were in all colours, without any colour. What’s Different now – the camera, or the eyes?” asks Abdel Salam Shehadah’s poetic and mesmerizing homage to the studio photographers of the 1950’s – 70’s. Set partly in a refugee camp in Rafah, this is a remarkable look back at fifty years of Palestinian and Arab history, through photographs, reportage and the voices of these photographers today.
