Female First Sessions presents Diamonds, Backpacks, and a Matchbox
  • It’s been over six years since the Syrian revolution. In this lyrical homage to the pains of plight, Diamonds, Backpacks and a Matchbox chronicles the ongoing aftermath of the revolution, recounted by some of it’s ‘survivors’. These survivors, known to us simply as Syrian Refugees, recount their personal upheavals and hopes, both on an emotional and physical scale. In doing so, they piece together one of history’s (on going) darkest chapters, from a first hand experience. Thus becoming the testaments of a displaced nation, a portrait of Syria, from inside refugee camps across Jordan and Lebanon, which were filmed over the months of December 2016 to January 2017.
