Gaza Fixer by George Azar
Foreign reporters in conflict zones often rely on local ‘fixers’ – people who earn a living helping journalists get their stories. Raed Atharmneh is a fixer living and working in the Gaza Strip.
Film-maker George Azar chose to film Raed’s daily life as he works to provide for 42 clan members. It was supposed to be a straightforward story.
But Raed’s world was about to be turned upside down by a terrible event which put Raed – albeit very briefly - at the very centre of international media attention.
