The film combines a series of video probes into the landscape of East Jerusalem. Shot with a CCTV security camera, these images show that before and after instrumental "surveillance", there is inquisitiveness, jest, memory, desire and doubt that pervades the project of watching. A voice finds an image, an image is probed beneath its surface, thoughts withdraw or rebound. In these specific times and places, camera movements and live commentary become ways in which Palestinian residents evaluate what can be seen and speak about the nature of their distance from others.
