Ha-Wi-Ya
Student film
LIAF Project - UAL Central Saint Martins - 2020
'Ha-wi-ya' - meaning identity in Arabic - follows the story of a young British-Yemeni woman reminiscing about her distant childhood in Yemen. War and famine has prevented her from visiting again but that yearning to reconnect with ‘home’ is stronger than ever.
