Marker’s last video Stopover in Dubai is a found-footage film, nearly an objet trouvé. The original film was produced by the Dubai State Security service, of found CCTV footage tracking the assassins on their way to kill Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in his hotel room. Marker took the film as it is and added excerpts of a string quartet as soundtrack.
