Shroud House

In Shroud House, two girls disappear after discovering an abandoned palace on the outskirts of Amman. They take shelter, moving slowly through rooms where the furniture remains covered in sheets of polythene, with their own bodies similarly shrouded.

A witness is questioned about their disappearance. Her account moves between recollection, speculation, and theorization. The palace is not empty. Other figures pass through its rooms, as the structure folds multiple timelines into itself and keeps its own record.
