She gives workshops to children, youth and adults, helping them discover film as a therapeutic tool and a door that can open political and social conversations. Abu-Fariha’s films have won a host of prizes around the world. She was chosen as one of Forbes “30 Under 30” most promising young men and women of 2019.
