Abstract
The stories of refugees are at the heart of We Dare to Dream, a documentary by Waad Al-Kateab, which follows the fortunes of athletes as they attempt to compete in the Olympic Games for the Refugee Olympic Team. This is the second film by Al-Kateab, after the multi-award winning For Sama, a deeply harrowing documentary that chronicled Al-Kateab's experiences through the horrors of life under siege in Aleppo, Syria, and her hopes after the birth of her daughter Sama. We Dare to Dream begins with Al-Kateab's own story of becoming a refugee and her emotional journey after she left war-torn Aleppo. Now based in London, Al-Kateab uses her camera to tell the stories of other refugees and campaigns to raise awareness of the global refugee crisis.
