Synopsis:
Eulogy for the Dead Sea is a meditative feature length documentary which parallels regional conflict in Jordan, Israel and the West Bank with severe environmental degradation around the Dead Sea, which is estimated to disappear by 2050. In a land ravaged by war, loss is commonplace. Eulogy for the Dead Sea is a meditation on ecological grief that transcends borders.
