He Looked At Me is an intriguing documentary that draws you into a world of memory and nostalgia. The filmmaker's rediscovery of her hometown, Zgharta, through a 1966 lens is both personal and reflective. There's this rawness in the footage, a stark contrast to today's polished documentaries. The pace feels deliberate, often lingering in moments that make you question not just the images, but who controls them. The re-editing of sequences gives way to a broader conversation about heritage and identity. It's not just about the past; it’s about how we remember and represent it. There's something hauntingly beautiful about the way it captures a village's essence, the faces, the stories, almost like a love letter to a time gone by.
