DOCUMENTARIES
MASTOOR short DOCS
Mastoor began as a garment. It grew into a witness.
Documentaries is where that witness becomes film — where the voices we honour in our collections are given the time and quiet to speak for themselves.
These are not advertisements. They are records of dignity, of sacrifice, of the lives that shape what we believe a garment can mean.
7:60
القربان — A Mastoor Short Documentary
The short documentary 7:60 follows Mohamedou Ould Slahi, who was kidnapped in 2001, taken to Guantánamo, and held without charge for fourteen years. He was tortured. When he walked out, he had forgiven the men who broke him. 7:60 moves through his arrest, his interrogation, his trial, and his release — a meditation on sacrifice, faith, and what remains of a man after everything that can be taken from him has been.
The title is a verse of the Qur'ān — Sūrat al-A'rāf, 7:60 — in which a prophet is named by the powerful as "in clear error." It is also the number Mohamedou was assigned as a Guantánamo detainee. The accusation, separated by millennia. The same script.
The short documentary runs approximately twelve minutes. It has been released in 4 segments on our social channels.
