In this film installation by Cemile Sahin, different backgrounds, stories and issues relating to three Kurdish women are narrated and interwoven. They meet every year in a different presidential suite of a hotel to celebrate the death of ex-president and dictator Saddam Hussein. At the center is a box they always carry with them. It is an archive of drawings, texts and events that they created after his death. From this repository they draw details and keywords that set their stories in motion in ever new segments. In this way, an overall narrative is formed about nations, dictatorships, monuments, terror, and questions about power and interpretive sovereignty, original and fake.
