Alnaazihin (The Displaced) told the story of Zilan, a Kurdish-Syrian artist who flees Syria with her beloved Najib after the outbreak of war. Zilan and Najib take with them what is most precious to each other. Zilan carries Najib's poems, and he wraps one of Zilan's paintings. Their journey takes them through Turkey, Libya, Greece, and finally they reach the Netherlands.


“In this captivating production that renders the audience speechless, I brought to life a compelling and poignant true story through intricate video decorations. I employed abstract metaphors like graffiti cascading like ash from a wall, as well as depictions of landscapes and roads traversing a narrative filled with rich tales.”
