Damage

Synopsis

Ali is not a full citizen. He drives a cab with another man’s license and relies on GPS to find his way around a city he doesn’t know. His passenger, Esther, is an old woman who does not remember where she is going. Her anger is due to the lack of understanding of her surroundings in the face of her memory loss. They travel through the night in search of a vague destination while surveillance cameras mark their journey, coldly redacting the human element, defining who belongs and who does not, who is safe and who is not. What they are left with is their pain: she cannot remember and he cannot forget.
