Le Monde Diplomatique: Interview with Syrian filmmaker Soudade Kaadan about the story behind her fi

In this week's Le Monde Diplomatique, English edition, Sabah Haider interviews Syrian filmmaker Soudade Kaadan about her first feature, The Day I Lost My Shadow, which premieres in Venice in a couple of weeks.

"Syria’s refugee crisis, stemming from the war that began in 2011, remains unabated. The film’s entirely Syrian cast is a reflection of this; they come from a variety of places that are now home to the geographically disconnected Syrian diaspora — Germany, France, refugee camps in Lebanon, and inside Syria — to be in the film."
