Short Documentary :
Hadhahad is a documentary that explores the lullaby as more than just a song sung by mothers to their children — it is a vessel of emotional heritage, and a reflection of psychological, social, and emotional states.
The film weaves together sensory visuals and contemplative interviews with a range of guests, exploring the impact of lullabies on infants, their auditory memory from the earliest stages of life, and the role these songs play in shaping emotional and human development.
The documentary focuses on the connection between sound and feeling, the repetitive maternal rocking, and the tenderness that takes root deep in the subconscious. It also highlights visual motifs and the rhythm of the lullaby as deeply rooted cultural expressions within Arab communities.
