When You Were Young Were You Afraid of the Moon? is a deeply reflective documentary that captures the essence of Nawal's journey from the West Bank to Berlin. It’s not just about leaving a place; it's about the emotional ties that linger, especially the relationship with her mother, an Israeli activist still entrenched in conflict. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the audience to soak in the complexities of their bond, and the cinematography has this raw, gritty feel that complements the themes of resistance and inheritance. The performances are intimate, almost like eavesdropping on a very personal story. It's distinctive in its exploration of womanhood across borders, showcasing the weight of legacy in a world filled with strife.
