Jerusalem Pink

Jerusalem Pink (2015) explores the role of stone in Palestine in relation to an architectural survey of the Dome of the Rock (an Islamic shrine in Jerusalem), produced by Brennan’s great-grandfather in 1924. Detailed descriptions of the building’s condition punctuate interviews with four Palestinian experts – a geologist, an archaeologist, a stone worker and an architect. The film builds a stratified image of Palestine, excavating the latent narratives inside Jerusalem stone.
