The short film “Fatima’s Drawings” was made by photographer Magnus Wennmann. It portrays the journey of Fatima, a Syrian refugee, using her own drawings to offer a glimpse of life in Idlib, Syria, the civil war which made her family depart, and their harrowing journey from Syria to Europe, before arriving at a new home in Norberg, Sweden. The film has won multiple honors at leading festivals, including the First Prize of the World Press Photo multimedia category, and best digital news story for France’s Visa pour l’Image Photojournalism Festival.
Fatima’s photo portrait by Magnus Wennman (part of his photographic essay “Where the Children Sleep”) is currently on display at Charlottesville High School, and will be exhibited at the Jefferson School African American Heritage Center starting December 7th.
