Movie description
In Gazing at the Catastrophe, Ali Cherri reflects on how suffering has become increasingly integrated into his daily life. Witnessing of atrocities, Cherri argues, seems to be an inevitable condition of modernity. The knowledge of war gained by those who have not experienced it firsthand is informed exclusively by mediated images found on the internet or in the media.
