Through semi-fictional storytelling, This Haunting Memory That Is Not My Own examines the entanglement of economic growth and environmental decay within social and ecological injustice systems. The film confronts the extraction and violence inflicted on human and nonhuman bodies along Beirut’s shorelines, its port, and the Karantina district—a dumping ground for the unwanted, both things and bodies.
