"The Sight is a Wound" confronts the impossibility of image-making in the face of genocide. Through the burning of over 50 paintings, the film interrogates the ethical failure of aesthetics, where witnessing collapses into complicity. It is an act of refusal—excavating absence, exhaustion, and the limits of representation.

The film witnesses their experiences, fears, and hopes in a war zone. Despite their circumstances, they dream and hope for a better future. The film is a lesson in courage about the impact of wars on children worldwide and a testament to human resilience.

On travelling to Pakistan, Helena becomes involved in a botched mission to capture one of al Sharif’s key lieutenants.

That’s the story. But the film doesn’t show you how the story unfolds. Instead, you encounter its characters alone in a black void, staring into the camera’s lens. Their faces are the film’s landscapes. They report on the lives they are forced to live and the harrowing world that we’ve imagined for them. THE VIEW FROM ABOVE is a film that asks spectators to confront the brutal, misogynist and white-supremacist ideologies of the stories we consume as entertainment. It seeks to reveal the role that so many contemporary thrillers force audiences to play and invites them to regret learning their lines.
