    • Synopsis
    • Omar is a student, not a refugee. He was in Budapest on a scholarship when we first met. He wanted to speak to the world. We needed to open up a more suggestive space for the listener to imagine that which remains obscured in the quiet flicker of uncertainty. An unconventional portrait of my Syrian friend when he turned 23.
