Independent Yemeni film and theatre director Amr Gamal returns to the podcast to share more about his work and love for Aden. He talks about the power of comedy, and says, “When you mix tragedy with comedy it’s easier to swallow.” Amr also shares how, as he’s taken his work out of the country, he’s learned that, “People everywhere can understand your art if it’s from your heart.” He speaks candidly about his devotion to the city of Aden and his commitment to do whatever he can to give Aden the justice she deserves. Amr urges Yemenis living abroad, “Go see the world and come back. We need Yemenis to come back and re-build this country. If we all leave, who will stay and who will give justice to Yemen?”

After nearly all the theaters, cinemas, and stages in Aden were either shut down or destroyed following Yemen’s civil war that ended in 1994, Amr Gamal went on to become an independent Yemeni film and theatre director. He wrote and directed 10 theatre productions between 2005 and 2014 and his play Maak Nazel became the first Yemeni production to be performed in Europe. In 2018, Amr produced his first feature film, 10 Days Before the Wedding. The film premiered in Aden during the summer of 2018 and was screened there for over eight months. The actors who agreed to work on the film, despite the risks and the low budget, told Amr, “It’s better to die out doing something than to die at home doing nothing.” Amr and his team exemplify the spirit of Yemeni resilience – they recognize they have only one life to live and they are fighting every day to make it count.

Nada has been nominated for the Nobel Prize for Children and works on a myriad of issues through her foundation, including the recruitment of child soldiers, underage marriage, and child labour.

She explains how she works with her foundation to increase awareness that it is education that will protect a girl’s future, while underage marriage will destroy it.

Shiran Avraham is an Israeli singer-songwriter with Yemeni roots. Avraham talks about her grandmother’s journey from Yemen to Israel and how the stories her family told her about Yemen impacted her identity and her work. Although she found it difficult to connect with Arabic music while her peers were listening to the modern pop music of the 90s, she fell in love with it once she connected with her grandmother and learned about her roots. This added another rich layer to the already diverse influences that make Shiran one of the most remarkable artists to appear from the Middle East in years. Translating and singing some of her original songs into Yemeni Arabic has allowed her work to cross even more religious, cultural, and musical divides.

Frustration over women being consistently sidelined through Yemen’s political uprisings and war, as well as the toxic relationships between men and women in Yemen, inspired Alaa to take action. She calls us all, and especially Yemeni families, to come together and work to have healthy relationships and build communities that support the aspirations of women and men.

Yet, he has fun, and knows that social media has not only kept him sane throughout the 5 years of war, but can be used to send out lifesaving messaging at a time when Yemenis need it the most!

She talks to us about the challenges of doing aid work in Yemen and why vulnerable Yemenis often don’t trust humanitarian organizations. Rania speaks frankly about her real challenges in light of a global recession, where funding is down approximately 50%. In 2020, many vulnerable Yemenis may have access to half the aid of last year while they face twice the need as a result of COVID-19. It’s hard to imagine how they will buy basic needs in bulk to practice social distancing when they have little to no income.
