Soufra

Dir. Thomas A. Morgan USA/Lebanon 73 min

2017

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 — and a diverse team of fellow refugee women as they set out to change their fate by launching a catering company, Soufra, and expanding 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.

Soufra is a stirring tale of dedication, ingenuity and empowerment that brings together culinary creativity and political resilience.
