Produktinformationen zu „What Have You Left Behind? “
In 2015, a year after the Yemeni civil war started, Bushra al-Maqtari decided to document the suffering of civilians. Putting her life at risk, she gathered over 400 testimonies over two years. Alternating between accounts from the victims of the Houthi rebels and those of the Saudi-led coalition, she highlights the disillusionment felt by civilians trapped in a war outside of their own making.
