Storyline

Gaza's First Photographer “ Kegham tells the story of Kegham Djeghalian, an Armenian who moved from Jerusalem to Gaza in 1945 and opened a studio called Kegham Studio. In the film, we meet his archive keeper, family, students, and people who knew him. We explore the city for the first time not through the eyes of the English occupation, but through Kegham's lens, seeing how he succeeded in making photography a popular trend for all people.
