Shuruuk

Meaning ‘rising in the east’, Shuruuk is a dreamlike, diaristic journey from Japan to Tunisia and from Palestine to France. Amie Barouh’s intimate, roving camera bears witness to the flow of life and movement from East to West. Five years of documentation come together to form a beautifully honest, impressionistic portrait of diasporic and immigrant communities, and an ode to the resilience of those living life in exile.
