Gathering Memories with my Eyelashes
Gathering Memories with my Eyelashes tells the story of an actress who begins to lose certain childhood memories, leading her mother to take her on a journey to recover them. While rediscovering these memories, she unveils new truths about herself, her family, and her homeland. Nanda Mohammad’s journey to create her first theatrical performance as an author is deeply linked to her complex relationship with memories of Syria, her native country. For years, she struggled with the emotional weight of these memories, questioning their importance. Through this work, Nanda explores memory as both a theme and an experience, especially the memories of a homeland she may never return to. Between two worlds, her past in Syria and her current life in Egypt, she asks a fundamental question: is it possible to build a future by erasing the past? And how can one avoid being trapped by the past while fighting to live in the present?
