Elettra Bisogno
& Hazem Alqaddi

Elettra Bisogno (1993) was born in Italy and grew up in various european cities. After studying graphic design in Italy, where she specialized in experimental printmaking, she moved to Brussels and instinctively turned to the moving image. She draws inspiration and forges herself from watching and listening to the world, in its beauty and its ugliness. Graduating in 2021 from the Kask School of Arts (BE) in the cinema section, she emerged as a documentary filmmaker with two short films Ultima Cassa (2018) and Old Child (2020).

Hazem Alqaddi (1998) is from Palestine, he graduated from the Unrwa Schools in Gaza and arrived in Belgium in 2018 wishful for a new life outside of a besieged Palestine. In Gaza and until today, he is a passionate rollerblader, kitemaker, chef and storyteller. Driven by a desire to connect with people, he discovered filmmaking in 2019 when he co-directed Old Child (2020), and has been recording with commitment ever since to express what’s on his heart.
