WarPlay
A young refugee boy and an exiled filmmaker collaborate to create truthful images of war and exclusion, based on childhood memories of terror and the current situation among thousands of tents in an Iraqi refugee camp. Refugee children use the camera as a communication tool, reenacting terror, healing trauma, making peace, and creating new dreams. By taking control of their own narratives the children’s dreams expand, and they start asking for more from their mentor, who unexpectedly finds himself having an identity crises: has he now become the rich western outsider?
