The Neighborhood Storyteller
The Neighborhood Storyteller is the inspiring and heroic story of Asmaa, a determined young Syrian mother of four living as a refugee in Zaatari camp, Jordan, who for the last seven years has been using the art of reading aloud for pleasure to children as a bridge to tackle issues within her community. Trained by Jordanian nonprofit, We Love Reading, Asmaa uses the skills she learned, her creativity and resourcefulness to embark on a new reading project that contributes to building a conscious generation of strong and empowered women.This documentary film is presented by The Big Heart Foundation who strives to not only respond to humanitarian crises but to also work on developing projects which support vulnerable populations and empower people to become advocates and change-makers in their communities
