Aeham Ahmad rose to international prominence in 2014, after being filmed singing songs of peace amid the rubble of his hometown Yarmouk - a besieged Palestinian refugee camp on the outskirts of Damascus, Syria. Surrounded by war, starvation and displacement, he sought to bring hope to the children of Yarmouk, and spread a message of friendship to the outside world. When invading fighters threatened his life, Aeham was forced to flee with his wife and children, embarking on a perilous voyage across land and sea. This 12-minute documentary film combines animation, original music and interview, with performance and archive footage, to share Aeham's remarkable journey.
