Nothing in his two decades of work as a photojournalist in Gaza prepared Mohamed Zaanoun for the things he witnessed during the current war. Now, for the first time in his career, he turns the camera lens on himself and his own family to tell their recent experiences and journey of survival out of the war-torn Gaza Strip.
In this documentary project Zaanoun delves into the aspects of war that are less covered in the midst of the unravelling violence and death, focusing on his experiences as a photojournalist torn between his work and the struggle to get his family to safety. Throughout the war, Zaanoun documented his four children as they were trying to make sense and cope with the horrors around them.
