Maamun rebuilds photos and sound, recovers lost content, recharges batteries, and restores the only link his neighbours still have with Syria. And together with his friend Karim, they print off the photos which have filled up the mobile phones of the people who live in Za’atari.
On Thursday 11 April, District Zero will be screened as part of The Better World Film Fringe at Belfast Film Festival at 7pm in The MAC by the Coalition for Aid Development Agencies (CADA). Tickets £5.
After this UK and Irish première, I’ll be hosting a short panel discussion on the situation in Syria and its human impact with
- Ahmad Alissa (a refugee from Syria living in Belfast)
- Colm Byrne (Oxfam Humanitarian Manager)
- Prof Monica McWilliams (Womens Studies at UU Transitional Justice Institute).
