Swelim al-Absi's Interview with the Palestinian Museum, 'Never Part' Exhibition, 2013

This video clip documents Swelim al-Absi's interview with the Palestinian Museum as part of the "Never Part" project. In this project, the museum aimed to collect stories related to highly cherished and valuable belongings preserved by Palestinians, which serve as epitomes of their connection to their homeland. Al-Absi keeps a collection of silver coffee cups, known as "Bakarj al-Qahwa," which he inherited from his father. His father received them as a gift from Hajj Amin al-Husseini.
