The Weight of Memories on My Feet, is a 2022 Egyptian movie, directed by Tariq Abdalla. with a runtime of 6 minutes.
The Weight of Memories on My Feet is a short personal documentary in which the filmmaker seeks refuge from the growing tension of family life by turning to her family archive. What begins as a retreat into photographs and old documents soon reveals itself to be no escape at all — memories prove heavier than the present she was trying to leave behind. Intimate and quietly powerful, the film meditates on the paradox of family history: the past we reach toward for comfort can become its own form of burden.
