The Syrian war through the camera

Citizen journalist Waad al-Kateab was twenty-six years old when she picked up a camera to document the everyday violence of the Syrian war. She was also, at the time, juggling motherhood. Her work comes together in For Sama, an award-winning documentary that looks at the intimacy of familial love and the ravages of war. She joins the Prospect Podcast to talk about life in Aleppo, what the West forgets about the war, and settling into life in the UK.

For Sama arrives in cinemas this week.
