A Camera on the Roof
This morning, I read in the newspaper about a taxi driver who decided to live on the roof of a bulding in Jaramana (a suburb of Damascus) despite the danger of war’s countless missiles
This evening I watched « Taxi Tehran », it’s an Iranian movie directed by Jafar Panahi, tomorrow I will take what is left for me in my country, my camera, and head to the taxi driver
