Virtual Reality Films with UNHCR
Over 123 million people around the world are displaced due to persecution, conflict, violence, human rights violations, or events that seriously disturb public order. Their reality is filled with uncertainty, fear, and suspense. It is also a reality that can now be shown through modern technology. Using this technology, UNHCR seeks to reveal the realities of some of the world’s most vulnerable people — those who are on the run across the globe.
“Clouds over Sidra” is an 8-minute video in which a 12-year-old girl from Syria named Sidra introduces you to her life at the Zaatari refugee camp in Jordan, now home to over 50,000 Syrian refugees. In this film, you will be able to turn your gaze 360 degrees and get a visual understanding of the environment surrounding hundreds of thousands who are on the run, stepping into a reality no one should have to experience.
The second film available is “The Displaced.” The 10-minute video follows three children — Oleg from Ukraine, Chuol from South Sudan, and Hana, a Syrian refugee living in a camp in Lebanon — through their respective worlds: their friends, their villages, their lives. You hear their stories while walking alongside them in fields, sitting with them amid rubble, and witnessing the frantic scramble to receive food dropped from aid planes.
