On the Laundry Rope | 2016
"The film is a silent portrait of the city, made by 10 young people through portraying two characters: the first is a young man living in isolation after all his friends have left, and the second is an elderly man suffering from Alzheimer's." The film is the result of documentary filmmaking workshops in partnership between the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Syria and Lens of Peace, where I was the lead trainer and general supervisor of film production.
The community in Latakia seems more harmonious — at least on the surface — as the social components coexist with each other. Participants who were displaced from cities directly affected by violent war actions spoke about how easily they integrated into Latakia.
The trainees wanted to express their feelings toward the city through a silent film that follows the lives of two people living in Latakia.
