Reel Borders studies how borders are imagined through film
Sally Hllouby has won the special jury award for her film “We Were There” at the Directed by Women Festival in Istanbul (13-15 September). Sally made the film as part of our participatory filmmaking workshop held in Adana which she also co-trained. Now in its 6th year, the film festival had a total of 61 screenings, and applications from directors from 39 countries. Her film, a moving reflection on loss and memory across borders, has been also part of the International Documentary & short film festival of Kerala (India), among others. Congratulations Sally, and we look forward to more news about this beautiful film!
