The War on My Phone

Offering an intimate insight into the everyday lives of Syrian friends and families separated by the civil war, this film documents four personal stories through the protagonists’ phones, which have become their main tool for finding meaning in life, keeping up hope and maintaining relationships.

Videos, photos and personal messages are used to show what it means to be safe in a foreign land and yet to remain in the midst of a conflict.
