“A Portrait of Michel” is an investigative video portrait of the Uncle of the artist, Michel, and the circumstances surrounding his mysterious abduction by the Hafez al-Assad regime in Damascus in 1978. Through witnesses and bribery, we found out he was sent to three different prisons: Mezzeh, Sednaya, and Palmyra. Michel was never seen or heard from since.

Christine Gedeon, born in Aleppo/Syria and raised in the USA, is an artist, researcher, and filmmaker who lives in Berlin and New York.
