Don't miss the Post-show Q&A with the film's Director Thomas Morgan and impact producer Lisa Madison, moderated by Selene Ong (Advocates for Refugees Singapore) on Thursday 06 September* 

Soufra follows the inspirational story of intrepid social entrepreneur, Mariam Shaar – a refugee who has spent her entire life in the Burl El Barajneh refugee camp south of Beirut, Lebanon. 

The film follows Mariam and a diverse team of fellow refugee women as they set out to change their fate by launching a catering company, “Soufra,” and then expand its reach outside the camp with a food truck business. Together, they heal the wounds of war through the unifying power of food while taking their future into their own hands.
