- Synopsis
- STILL BREATHING shows a day in a life of a Syrian girl (8 years old) who is staying in a German refugee
  camp. In a dream sequence the girl's trauma is shown, a story of war, loss and fear. This poetic narrative was flmed in an actual refugee camp during the peek time of the Syrian refugee crisis. Through
  atmosphere and the focus on the small things, the flm gives a sensitive insight into the everyday lives of
  refugees and builds bridges between humans. Cultural clashes mostly experienced through news turn out to be a mirror, that inspires human evolution on an individual and societal level.
