"From my window" is a series for which artists and filmmakers are invited to contribute a short video letter or statement, a small window on their current situation and how they are living through this time; to be presented together with a program of films that are pertinent to the moment, and that are culled from material freely accessible online. Emily Jacir wrote the following message to contextualise her video:March 24, 2020 On January 30th the first Coronavirus cases appeared in Rome, and Italy suspended all flights from China. On that day I wrote a first message to my family very worried. I looked for facemasks, but there were no masks to be found anywhere in Rome. On February 2nd, I traveled to Lausanne for work. On my way back, I managed to find masks at the train station in Lausanne, and bought what I thought would be enough at the time – 10 masks. I wore a mask for the first time on Feb 4 on the train back to Milano. But by February 28th the cases in Italy rose to 650 and I was unable to return to Bethlehem and got stuck in Rome. On February 29th cases rise to 1128 with 29 people dead. By March 7, Italy is reporting more deaths from the virus than any other country in the world. Coronavirus deaths jump to 197 - the largest daily increase. On March 8 we reach 6387 coronavirus cases, that’s 1326 more then the day before with 366 dead. I still cannot get back to Bethlehem, which as of 48 hours ago, is also under lockdown. I have been without any human contact since March 1st. I am separated from my family and my dogs. I am alone in a flat with one window, and that window is my only access to the outside world. That window has become my world. On March 12. I film out my only window for the first time, coming to terms with the fact that I face a wall whose simulacra of two windows only emphasize isolation. Any hoped for human contact with people here, will have to come sideways.
