At Webdox she will talk about her web documentary called ‘Life on Hold’.
Life on Hold takes you into the homes and lives of ten Syrian refugees who sought shelter in neighbouring Lebanon. Four languages, five different facets of a Syrian refugee’s life and ten profiles representing millions who remain unseen – this is the Life on Hold manifesto. Users are encouraged to listen, watch and get involved, leaving messages of solidarity on The Wall; a unique collaboration with revolutionary Syrian artist Tammam Azzam that has garnered engagement from a worldwide audience.

He will talk about his documentary called ‘The Enemy’. (http://theenemyishere.org/) In this VR documentary he does his best to humanize all sides of war. His goal is to simulate a discussion, make people reflect upon choices and ultimately, expand the moral imagination of people.
