Zaatari Djinn

An exceptionally intimate film about the resilience of children. In the middle of the Jordanian desert, a few tents were set up for a couple of hundred Syrian refugees. Then, quick as lightning, with improvised shacks and caravans, arose Zaatari, a new city whose population is 80 percent children. Through the eyes of four children, we get to see and feel what it is like to grow up in this place, with very little resources or prospects, but with an enormous scope for dreams.
