A poetic portrait of an actor, activist, and exile—told through the cities that shaped him.

Four Seasons of Jamal Soliman follows acclaimed Syrian actor Jamal Soliman on a deeply personal journey through art, politics, and exile. Blending memories, monologues, and poetic fragments, the film traces his evolution from Damascus to Cairo to Paris—through the four metaphorical "seasons" of his life.

Soliman reflects on identity, language, censorship, and legacy, weaving his private experiences with Syria’s public history. Shot in three countries and composed like a lyrical essay, this film is a meditation on fame, freedom, and the cost of taking a stand. At its heart, it’s about a man who never stopped believing in the power of art to confront truth.
