Storyline

Chris Marker’s Stopover in Dubai is a found-footage documentary reconstructed from CCTV material released by Dubai State Security, documenting the 2010 assassination of Hamas co-founder Mahmoud al-Mabhouh. The footage follows a team of 26 assassins moving through hotels and corridors on the day of the killing. Marker retained the original images but replaced the broadcast’s generic soundtrack with Henryk Górecki’s music performed by the Kronos Quartet.
