Zaatari Djinn (2016)

Zaatari Djinn plot

Documentary by director Catherine van Campen about the Zaatari refugee camp from the perspective of children. The living environment of four children is central and through them we get to know the camp. The children live in different neighborhoods of Zaatari, where some have it better than others. In the middle of the desert under the scorching sun a whole new city has arisen. A city that consists for 80 percent of children. From the perspective of four children from different social backgrounds, we see and feel what it is like to grow up in this city; the Zaatari refugee camp. A place with few resources or the prospect of improvement, but with room for dreams. Ferras (10) is the quiet, poor boy with an old soul. He is haunted by the war. Ferras works hard and is hard to gauge, while Fatma (12), with a rooster as best friend, is much more open and assertive. Miryam (15) almost becomes a woman. She aspires to a pious life but falls in love with Shakespeare. And then there is the rich Hammoudi (8), he can buy everything he wants and for him the camp is a paradise.
