Director Statement

Stateless is my debut film, exploring the emotional struggles of refugees living without a homeland. Through the story of Rehala, I aim to highlight the pain of displacement and the loss of identity. This film is a call for empathy, reminding us of our shared humanity and the importance of compassion for those who are stateless. As a new filmmaker, I hope to spark reflection on the refugee experience and inspire a deeper understanding of refugee and belonging
