Queues (workshops of Haneen Koraz)

QUEUES / Tawabeer, August 2024
A film made at the stop motion animation workshop organized by Haneen Koraz with the internally displaced women and children in Gaza Strip.
This film presents real-life experiences of the refugees while the narrative is led by the poem of Mahmoud Darwish.
"This artwork was made in one of the shelter centers in the Deir al-Balah area, with the participation of displaced children. As this name bore a part of the children's daily life, every displaced child had a queue in his daily life." (Haneen Koraz's post)
