‘Adnan’ is the story of an imaginative ten year old Syrian refugee boy who has had to flee his home country with his mother after the rest of their family were killed and their neighbourhood destroyed. Now settled in the UK, he must use all his creativity to break through his mother’s PTSD or risk losing her forever.
The film is 23 minutes long and will be a live stream followed by a Q&A Panellists will include:
Ayham Kabi - the young actor who plays the lead;
Steven Chatterton & Mark Arrigo - directors of the film.
Raghad Chaar - the actress who plays Adnan's mother.
Nico Sanders - Deputy CEO, Choose Love
