''Help us with bringing cinema into villages in Kobanî and making a documentary about it!''
Dem bash,
I am Ismail Mamo, from the vibrant community of Kobani in Rojava, North Syria.
Currently, I am studying acting at ArtEZ University of the Arts in the Netherlands, but
my heart remains firmly rooted in Kobani.
During a recent visit back home, I connected with some creative friends, including
the talented Zilan Hamo. Zilan lives there. She is a movie director and a writer. We
talked about cinema in Kobani and together, we came up with: ‘Travelling cinema
along villages’
''Help us with bringing cinema into villages in Kobanî and making a documentary about it!'' Kobani, with its 350 villages, is bursting with life, there is missing one thing - a cinema to tell stories. The war is part of the reason. and we aim to change that narrative. Our mission? To bring cinema and live performances into these villages, to inspire these people because cinema (and art) is a power of creativity for education, self- reflection and empathy. Cinema connects people and lets us understand the world we are in and the world around us.We dedicate ourselves to these people. We are super excited to start this project. Zilan as director and writer, me as an actor and a writer, our background will make this project possible to succeed. We will travel across Kobanis villages. We will show people a couple of short films from perspectives of different cultures. Before and after the screenings, we will bring live music and dance performances as a part of the program. With the whole experience we will entertain the spirits of both young and old within these villages. We are also going to film a documentary that captures the essence of our journey and the life of the villages. To share our story with the world. Our project will take place in three phases: from June 2024 till May 2025 with a team of six people.We are dreaming big. With your support, we aim to expand our team, with the hopes of offering acting, music, dance, and writing workshops for the little ones. Our project will be based on donations and your support! Kobani deserves access to art within its villages, and we are determined to deliver. Yet, we do need your help.All kinds of help are welcome and greatly appreciated! Stay tuned and follow our stories and pages and we will keep you updated. Bimini bi xer u xweshi.

Ik help Ismaîl graag om zijn gemeenschap met een rondreizende cinema te verblijden. Jij ook?

Het project is echt geweldig en heel bijzonder. Ik heb enorm veel respect voor jullie.
We hebben een wijziging in ons campagne en dat houdt in dat we deze laten stoppen en een andere laten beginnen. Inhoudelijk verandert er niks aan. Alleen het geldbedrag wordt gewijzigd gezien we de eerste te hoog bedrag hebben gevraagd en wat het bijna onmogelijk om te halen. En dat maakt ons campagne onsuccesvol. U krijgt uw geld terug.
Ergens komende dagen komt de nieuw campagne online en u kunt weer doneren als u wil.
We houden u op de hoogste en het spijt ons voor deze ongemak.
Groeten van ons,
Zîlan & Ismaîl

Dit project brengt bij de landgenoten van Ismaîl wat ze nodig hebben om het leed die zij hebben gehad en nog voelen te verzachten.

Theater zal het leven in Kobani verrijken en een stukje ontspanning brengen. De verhalen die terugkomen, zullen Nederland verrijken!
