Overview
The Night is a Syrian documentary-drama by director Mohammad Malas, a deeply personal excavation of memory set in the destroyed Golan Heights city of Quneitra. Using his own family as the lens, Malas reconstructs a history spanning from the 1936 revolts against British and Zionist forces in Palestine to the city's destruction and Israeli occupation in 1967. Drawing on his mother's recollections and the grave of his father, a resistance fighter, Malas seeks to reclaim a narrative overshadowed by shame and loss. Through the daily lives, dreams, and fears of Quneitra's citizens, the film becomes a haunting meditation on identity, displacement, and the burden of history.
