Past Run
Captains of Zataari
The two best friends Mahmoud and Fawzi living in the Za’atari Refugee Camp in Jordan have an undying dream of becoming professional soccer players while facing the difficult reality of their lives. Despite being locked in a space that has no facilities or opportunity for training, they remain hopeful and practice day in and day out. When a world-renowned sports academy visits, both have a chance to make this dream come true.

“Director Ali El Arabi crafts a film of deep humanity, providing an exposé of the struggles and tragedies of refugee life.”
