  • Dar El Nimer for Arts and Culture Clemenceau Bayrut, Beirut Governorate Lebanon (map)

As a result of being jailed in the Shin Bet’s Al- Moskobiya investigation centre at the age of 18, director Raed Andoni has fragments of memories he cannot determine as real or imagined. In order to confront the ghosts that haunt him, he decides to try to rebuild that mysterious place. Responding to a job announcement that seeks ex-inmates of Al-Moskobiya, a large group gathers in an empty yard. Together, they start a journey in which they rediscover the shape of their old prison and attempt to reenact their story.

Born in Palestine in 1967, Raed Andoni started his career in cinema as an independent producer in 1998. He co-founded the production company Dar Films. Ghost Hunting won the Glashütte Original Documentary Award at the 2017 Berlinale.
