The camera as a weapon against injustice. In the world of documentary photography and film directing, Sakir Khader is known for his courageous use of the camera as a powerful weapon against injustice. As a Netherlands-based Palestinian documentary photographer and filmmaker, Sakir has sharply focused on the most challenging conflict zones in the Middle East. Sakir’s work goes beyond just visual storytelling; it is a bold attempt to make the invisible visible, to make the voices of those who have no voice heard. His camera captures raw and intimate moments, confronting the viewer with the poetic and heartbreaking reality of daily life in conflict zones. Khader shows that the camera is not only an instrument to explore the world, but also to change the world, to give a face to injustice and to combat it. -- Event source: https://dezwijger.nl/programma/sakir-khader
