Cinevolution's 7th DocuAsia Forum continues in March with a series of lyrical, provocative documentary films including Zaatari Dinn (2016), Les Sauteurs (2016) and Ubuntu (2017). This year's films leap outside of Asia as a land bound concept and into the diasporic, migratory and mobile experiences that characterize what is happening in Asia -- and much of the rest of the world -- today.

The first in the series, Zaatari Djinn is gently magical in the way of childhood, but also frank and unsentimental. Beautifully shot and carefully crafted, the film is an intimate portrait of four children who are growing up in a city that does not exist....

Presented in partnership with City of Richmond, SFU's David Lam Centre and KPU's Asian Studies Department.
