FROM HERE TO DAMASCUS

Although this Lawrence Wright’s “Captured on Film: Can Dissident Filmmakers Effect Change in Syria” in this week’s New Yorker is not on-line, a luminous slide show of photos by Kate Brooks is. Over the photos, Wright talks about the state of Syrian filmmaking and the struggles it takes to make movies there. If you think you have a hard time getting your film made or seen, hear what it’s like in Syria.

    That link isn’t working for me but I’d like to check out the slide show. Can you double-check the URL? Thanks.

    Never mind, I think I figured it out. I don’t know if it was my browser, but if you use this URL, you should be all set:

    I have a couple friends from Syria, so I’d like to share this with them. Thanks for posting this.

    Cheers,
