This is Exile Friday 22nd March 2019, 12:30pm Auditorium Director: Mani Benchelan - Year: 2016 - Duration: 55minutes - Language: Arabic (Englic subtitles)

Subtitled ‘Diaries of Refugee Children’, This is Exile is a sensitive document of the thoughts and experiences of children caught up in the refugee crisis who have been forced to flee their homes in Syria to camps in neighbouring Lebanon. Followed over a year we see how the children live to day to day, play, work and survive with their families in the camps while revealing to the camera their reflections on the violence they have witnessed as well as their hopes for the future. Intimate and revealing the film is a document of the struggles a generation of children are being forced to endure at the hands of war.
