Boston Palestine Film Festival 2008

London-based filmmaker Katia Saleh was in Lebanon in 2006 covering the war in Lebanon between Israel and Hezbollah. One year later she went back and found out that the enemy had changed. Now the Palestinian refugees were threatened by a new group called Fateh el Islam who mysteriously entered Lebanon and based itself in the camp of Nahr el Bared in north Lebanon. Katia follows the children who are being displaced again within their own camps.

Katia Saleh has been directing and producing her own documentaries over the last two years, making films primarily about the Middle East. The most recent film she has made for Al Jazeera English was Deadly Playground about the remaining 1 million unexploded cluster bombs that Israel dropped in South Lebanon in 2006 and how children are living among them.
