Profiling the Native American reservation alongside the Palestinian refugee camp, Spaces of Exception was filmed from 2014 to 2017 in Arizona, New Mexico, New York, and South Dakota, and in Lebanon and the West Bank. It is an attempt to understand the significance of the land — its memory and divisions — and the conditions for life, community, and sovereignty.

The event is made possible by funds from Malmö stad’s cultural stipend Öppna Malmö.
