Screening – This is Exile: Diaries of Child Refugees + Q&A

This screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Mani Benchelah.

Over the course of a year, Emmy Award-winning director Mani Benchelah made this intimate portrait of Syrian refugee children forced to flee from the violence of civil war to neighbouring Lebanon. It tells the stories of the children’s lives in their own words and captures the moving truth of how they deal with loss, hardship and dashed hopes.
