Purple Sea (2020) dir. Khaled Abdulwahed, Amel Alzakout

Made from images filmed by the Syrian artist Amel Alzakout after the boat on which she was fleeing Syria sank off the coast of Lesbos, Purple Sea reports on the moment in which the codirector and the other passengers are floating in the sea in their lifejackets, waiting to be rescued. Her voiceover accompanies this extremely poignant experience.
